Dot Plots
A dot plot groups the data as little as possible and the identity of an individual observation is not lost.
To develop a dot plot, each observation is simply displayed as a dot along a horizontal number line indicating the possible values of the data.
If there are identical observations or the observations are too close to be shown individually, the dots are “piled” on top of each other.
Learning Objective 1 Develop and interpret a
dot plot.

Quartiles, Deciles and Percentiles The standard deviation is the most widely used
measure of dispersion.
Alternative ways of describing spread of data include determining the location of values that divide a set of observations into equal parts.
These measures include quartiles, deciles, and percentiles.
Learning Objective 2 Compute and understand quartiles, deciles, and percentiles.

Percentile Computation To formalize the computational procedure, let Lp refer to the
location of a desired percentile. So if we wanted to find the 33rd percentile we would use L33 and if we wanted the median, the 50th percentile, then L50.
The number of observations is n, so if we want to locate the median, its position is at (n + 1)/2, or we could write this as (n + 1)(P/100), where P is the desired percentile.

BoxplotsLearning Objective 3
Construct and interpret box plots.
A box plot is a graphical display, based on quartiles, that helps us picture a set of data.
To construct a box plot, we need only five statistics:
1.the minimum value, 2.Q1(the first quartile), 3.the median, 4.Q3 (the third quartile), and 5.the maximum value.

Boxplot ExampleStep1: Create an appropriate scale along the horizontal axis. Step 2: Draw a box that starts at Q1 (15 minutes) and ends at Q3 (22minutes). Inside the box we place a vertical line to represent the median (18 minutes).
Step 3: Extend horizontal lines from the box out to the minimum value (13minutes) and the maximum value (30 minutes).

Boxplot – Using MinitabWhat can we conclude about the distribution of the vehicle selling prices?
Conclude: •The median vehicle selling price is about $23,000, •About 25 percent of the vehicles sell for less than $20,000, and that about 25 percent sell for more than $26,000. •About 50 percent of the vehicles sell for between $20,000 and $26,000. •The distribution is positively skewed because the solid line above $26,000 is somewhat longer than the line below $20,000.

Skewness
In Chapter 3, measures of central location (the mean, median, and mode) for a set of observations and measures of data dispersion (e.g. range and the standard deviation) were introduced
Another characteristic of a set of data is the shape. There are four shapes commonly observed:
symmetric, positively skewed, negatively skewed, bimodal.
Learning Objective 4 Compute and understand the
coefficient of skewness.

Skewness - Formulas for Computing
The coefficient of skewness can range from -3 up to 3. A value near -3, indicates considerable negative skewness. A value such as 1.63 indicates moderate positive skewness. A value of 0, which will occur when the mean and median are
equal, indicates the distribution is symmetrical and that there is no skewness present.

Describing Relationship between Two Variables
When we study the relationship between two variables we refer to the data as bivariate.
One graphical technique we use to show the relationship between variables is called a scatter diagram.
To draw a scatter diagram we need two variables. We scale one variable along the horizontal axis (X-axis) of a graph and the other variable along the vertical axis (Y-axis).
Learning Objective 5 Draw and interpret a scatter diagram.

Describing Relationship between Two Variables –Scatter Diagram Excel ExampleIn Chapter 2 we presented data
from AutoUSA. In this case the information concerned the prices of 80 vehicles sold last month at the Whitner Autoplex lot in Raytown, Missouri. The data shown include the selling price of the vehicle as well as the age of the purchaser.
Is there a relationship between the selling price of a vehicle and the age of the purchaser?
Would it be reasonable to conclude that the more expensive vehicles are purchased by older buyers?

Contingency Tables
A scatter diagram requires that both of the variables be at least interval scale.
What if we wish to study the relationship between two variables when one or both are nominal or ordinal scale? In this case we tally the results in a contingency table.
Learning Objective 6 Construct and interpret a contingency table.

Contingency TablesA contingency table is a cross-tabulation that
simultaneously summarizes two variables of interest.
Examples:1. Students at a university are classified by gender and class rank.2. A product is classified as acceptable or unacceptable and by the
shift (day, afternoon, or night) on which it is manufactured.3. A voter in a school bond referendum is classified as to party
affiliation (Democrat, Republican, other) and the number of children that voter has attending school in the district (0, 1, 2, etc.).

Contingency Tables – An ExampleA manufacturer of preassembled windows produced 50 windows yesterday. This
morning the quality assurance inspector reviewed each window for all qualityaspects. Each was classified as acceptable or unacceptable and by the shifton which it was produced. Thus we reported two variables on a single item.The two variables are shift and quality. The results are reported in thefollowing table.
Using the contingency table able, the quality of the three shifts can be compared. For example:1. On the day shift, 3 out of 20 windows or 15 percent are defective. 2. On the afternoon shift, 2 of 15 or 13 percent are defective and 3. On the night shift 1 out of 15 or 7 percent are defective. 4. Overall 12 percent of the windows are defective
