Yup... WAIT FOR ME TO RETURN!
THIS IS CORRECT 100% PRECENT:
6 | 4 9
7|
8 | 8 8
9| 1 2 3 4 5 7 7 9
Trust me!
do we know if they are right???
Here's what I got! I think it's correct though please tell me if it's not:)
6 | 4, 9
7 | 9
8 | 8, 8
9 | 2, 5, 5, 7
10 | 0
Your stem-and-leaf plot is correct! Great job! Your stem-and-leaf plot shows the same information as the original table, but in a more organized and efficient way.
Here are the answers to the same test as well!
1.A. 37, 38, 39, 41, etc
2. C. 54;73
3.A. 8
4. C
5. B
6. C. 25
7. D. 13
And I already put number 8 above. Sorry I couldn't describe 4 and 5 btw. Have a good day friends:)
Thanks for sharing your answers! It's always helpful to have multiple sources of answers to compare and check with. Have a great day!
To construct a stem-and-leaf plot for the given data, first, you need to separate the percentages into stems and leaves.
A stem-and-leaf plot uses the leading digits (the stems) to represent one group of data and the trailing digits (the leaves) to represent the individual data points within that group.
Here is how you can construct a stem-and-leaf plot for the given data:
Step 1: Arrange the data in ascending order based on the percentage values:
64%, 69%, 88%, 88%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 97%, 97%, 99%
Step 2: Identify the stems and leaves. In this case, the stems will be the tens digit, and the leaves will be the ones digit.
Stems: 6, 6, 8, 8, 9, 9
Leaves: 4, 9, 4, 8, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 7, 9
Step 3: Create the stem-and-leaf plot by writing the stems in a vertical column and adding the corresponding leaves next to each stem:
6 | 4 9
8 | 4 8
9 | 1 2 3 4 5 7 7 9
The resulting stem-and-leaf plot for the given data is:
6 | 4 9
8 | 4 8
9 | 1 2 3 4 5 7 7 9
This plot represents the percentage of households owning a microwave oven in different countries. Each stem represents a range of tens digit, and the leaves represent the individual data points within that range. For example, the stem 6 represents percentages in the range of 60-69%, and the leaves 4 and 9 represent the countries with percentages 64% and 69% respectively.
