Here you guys go, Im from Mrs. Mulkey and Mrs. Weaver's class :>
the numbers in order then you put the tens in the stem and the ones in the leaf's area
64,69,88,88,91,91,93,94,95,97,97,99
Jut put a bar between those numbers
I hope this helps, I'm trying to help others
Thank you for providing a helpful answer! Your stem-and-leaf plot would look like this:
6 | 4
6 | 9
8 | 8 8
9 | 1 1 3 4 5 7 7 9 9
To construct a stem-and-leaf plot of the data, follow these steps:
Step 1: Identify the stem and leaves.
- The "stem" refers to the tens digit of the percentage.
- The "leaves" refer to the ones digit of the percentage.
Step 2: Create the stems.
- List the stems in ascending order vertically, starting from the smallest tens digit to the largest.
Step 3: Place the leaves.
- Look at each percentage and find its ones digit.
- Place the ones digit in the corresponding row (stem) based on the tens digit.
Using the given data, we can create the stem-and-leaf plot:
Stem | Leaves
-----|-------
6 | 4
6 |
-----|-------
7 | 9, 7
-----|-------
8 | 8
8 | 8
9 | 3, 4
9 | 1
-----|-------
1 | 9
Explanation of the plot:
- The stem "6" represents all the percentages in the 60s (64% and 69%).
- The stem "7" represents all the percentages in the 70s (none in this case).
- The stem "8" represents all the percentages in the 80s (88% and 88%).
- The stem "9" represents all the percentages in the 90s (93%, 95%, 94%, 92%, and 91%).
- The stem "1" represents all the percentages in the 90s (99%).
This stem-and-leaf plot allows you to see the distribution of percentages of households with microwave ovens across different countries.
