Question 7

A dotplot shows the number of pets owned by students. If the mode is 2, what does this mean?

Accepted Answer

Most students own 2 pets.

Question 8

If you want to compare the number of siblings between two classes using dotplots, what feature should you focus on?

Question 9

A dotplot for Class A shows 5 dots above 0, 3 dots above 1, and 2 dots above 2. What is the median number of siblings in Class A?

Accepted Answer

$$0$$

Question 10

Suppose a dotplot shows the number of books read by students in a month as follows: 0 (2 dots), 1 (4 dots), 2 (3 dots), 3 (1 dot). What is the mean number of books read?

Accepted Answer

$$1.5$$

Question 11

If a dotplot for two classes shows that Class A has more dots above higher values than Class B, what can you infer?

Accepted Answer

Class A has more students with higher values for the variable measured.

Question 12

Which of the following best describes the process of creating a dotplot?

Accepted Answer

Stacking dots above each value on a number line to represent frequency

Accepted Answer

$$11$$

Question 14

If a dotplot is skewed to the right, what does this indicate about the data?

Accepted Answer

Most data values are low, with a few high values.

Question 15

Accepted Answer

$$4$$

Question 17

Accepted Answer

The value with the fewest dots above it

Question 18
