A distribution that is not symmetrical but has a greater quantity of data
on one side of the mean. - ANSWER-skewed distribution
The quality of the data having the same shape on both sides of the
mean. - ANSWER-symmetry
A common type of distribution of data points that forms a bell shaped,
symmetrical curve around the mean. - ANSWER-normal distribution
A graphical rendering of the range and the first and third quartiles of a
data set with the data set's median in the center. - ANSWER-box plots
A number used to describe a specific characteristic about a data set. -
ANSWER-numerical summary
1|Page
,Any collection of numerical values, such as measurements,
observations, or survey responses. - ANSWER-data set
A standard proportion or percentage of data points that lie away from
the mean for a normal distribution. - ANSWER-the Standard Deviation
Rule
A skewed distribution where the long tail of the curve is on the negative
side of the peak. - ANSWER-skewed left
The measure on average of how far the data points are from the mean.
- ANSWER-standard deviation
A description of a data set that has more than two modes. - ANSWER-
multimodal
A record of the number of times data occurs within a certain category. -
ANSWER-frequency distribution
A skewed distribution where the long tail of the curve is on the positive
side of the peak. - ANSWER-skewed right

, This type of data, also called qualitative data, consists of data values
that can be sorted into groups or categories. - ANSWER-categorical data
A set of data having two modes. - ANSWER-bimodal
As one variable increases, the other variable decreases. - ANSWER-
negative correlation
A way to approximate a percentage by dividing the number of times an
event occurred in an experiment by the total number of trials. -
ANSWER-relative frequency
A tool used for graphing that is a display of a two-dimensional plane. It
consists of an x-axis and a y-axis; the x-axis being a horizontal number
line, the y-axis is a vertical number line, and the axes meet at the origin
(0, 0). - ANSWER-coordinate plane
A table that contains frequency counts for two categorical variables. -
ANSWER-contingency table or two-way frequency table
There is no apparent overall trend between the two variables. -
ANSWER-no correlation
