Stem-n-leaf plot n n n A class took a test. The students' got the following scores. 94 85 77 100 85 95 98 95 First let us draw the stem and leaf plot This makes it easy to see that the mode, the most common score is an 85 since there are three of those scores and all of the other scores have frequencies of either one or tow. It will also make it easier to rank the scores

Stem-n-leaf n This will make it easier to find the median and the quartiles. There as many scores above the median as below. Since there are ten scores, and ten is an even number, we can divide the scores into two equal groups with no scores left over. To find the median, we divide the scores up into the upper five and the lower five.

Box Plot n n n n The five-number summary is an abbreviated way to describe a sample. The five number summary is a list of the following numbers: Minimum First (Lower) Quartile, Median, Third (Upper) Quartile, Maximum The five number summary leads to a graphical representation of a distribution called the boxplot. Boxplots are ideal for comparing two nearly-continuous variables. To draw a boxplot (see the example in the figure below), follow these simple steps: The ends of the box (hinges) are at the quartiles, so that the length of the box is the.

Box plots n n n The median is marked by a line within the box. The two vertical lines (called whiskers) outside the box extend to the smallest and largest observations within of the quartiles. Observations that fall outside of are called extreme outliers and are marked, for example, with an open circle. Observations between and are called mild outliers and are distinguished by a different mark, e. g. , a closed circle.

Example of boxplot n n n The Density of Nitrogen - A Comparison of Two Samples Lord Raleigh was one of the earliest scientists to study the density of nitrogen. In his studies, he noticed something peculiar. The density of nitrogen produced from chemical compounds tended to be smaller than the density of nitrogen produced from the air However, he was working with fairly small samples, and the question is, was he correct in his conjecture? Lord Raleigh's measurements which first appeared in Proceedings, Royal Society (London, 55, 1894 pp. 340 -344) are produced below. The units are the mass of nitrogen filling a certain flask under specified pressure and temperature. 1. Calculate the summary statistics for each set of data. 2. Construct side-by-side box plots.
