Lesson 15.5 Skills Practice page 2
a. Create a line plot for the results before the week of practice and a line plot for the
results after the week of practice.
0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Number of Free Throws Made Before One Week of Practice7 8 9
0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Number of Free Throws Made After One Week of Practice7 8 9
b. Describe the distribution of the data in each line plot and describe any clusters or gaps
that exist.
The distribution of the data in the first line plot is skewed right. There is a cluster of data
from 0 to 5 and a gap between 5 and 7. The distribution of the data in the second line plot
is symmetric. There is a cluster of data from 0 to 6 and a gap between 6 and 8.
c. What conclusions can you make about the experiment based on the data in your line plots?
Mr. Bowman’s hypothesis is correct. The data before the week of practice is skewed right
with most of the scores on the lower end of the plot. The data after the week of practice
is symmetric and centered around 4 free throws made.

4. Ms. Smothers, the typing teacher, conducts an experiment to determine which computer-
based typing program produces the best results for her students. For one month, one of her
classes uses the Speedy Type program and a different class uses the Super Typer program.
Then, Ms. Smothers records the number of words per minute typed by each student in her classes.
The data are displayed in the table.
TypingResultsforMs.Smother’sStudents
Speedy Type (words per minute) 34, 38, 42, 29, 51, 43, 60, 42, 35, 48, 45, 54, 46, 26, 35, 44, 50, 40, 62, 55

a. Create a side-by-side stem-and-leaf plot for the data.
b. Describe the distribution of the data in each data set.
c. Which typing program produced the best results according to the experimental data?
