3. Enter each value in the “L1” column press ENTER after each value.
4. Request the calculator’s One Variable Statistics.
Press STAT , ► , 1 , ENTER
Which Central Tendency, Mean or Median, is a better representation of the center in this
example?(Mean ( x ) , Median (Med), Number of Data Points (n), Population Standard deviation ( x ))
The potential client is looking to purchase property on or near a lake for somewhere around
$300,000 - $400,000. As a realtor, would you show the client the MEAN property value for this
particular cul-de-sac or would you share the MEDIAN which shows 50% of prices are above
and 50% of the prices are below that price.

CALC
M. Winking Unit 6-1 page 136
MEAN ( x ): The mean is the usual referred to as the average or arithmetic average. For
example, consider the data set 30, 38, 24, 32, 42. The mean would be the sum
of these numbers divided by the number of data points.
30 38 24 32 4233.2
5x
This measure of center should be used when all the data points are relatively
close to one another. The above points are plotted on a number line and all of
the points are relatively close.
MEDIAN (MED): The median is the middle number after lining up the numbers from least to
greatest. If there are 2 middle numbers the median is the average of the two middle
numbers. For example given the data set 9, 31, 12, 6000, 40. The mean would be
the sum of these numbers divided by the number of data points.
9,12,31,40,6000
Median = 31
This measure of center should be used when a data set has a few outliers.
Outliers are numbers that are significantly distant from the rest of the group of
numbers. An outlier can drastically change the MEAN but has little effect on
the MEDIAN. In the above example x = 1218.4 which doesn’t really represent
the data set well. The median is 31 which states that half of the numbers are above
31 and half are below 31.
MODE : The mode is simply the number that occurs the most often in a data set. If there aren’t
any duplicate numbers in the data set then there isn’t a mode. However if there are
two numbers that occur the most, it is possible to have more than one mode.
For example given the data set 20, 30, 20, 15, 6. The mode for this set is 20.
For example given the data set 20, 30, 20, 30, 6. The mode for this set is 20 and 30.
For example given the data set 20, 10, 30, 15, 8. This set doesn’t have a mode.
This measure of center should be used when there are an overwhelming number of
identical data points. Example Data set: 5, 5, 6, 5, 8, 5, 3,5,5
0 5 10
2000 4000 6000

JAWS 2: Incident at Arched Rock By Dave Cone
Originally published in Bay Currents, Nov 1993
This time we can joke about it-nobody got hurt. For the second year in a row,
autumn in Northern California was marked by a Great White Shark attack on a
coastal kayaker.
Rosemary Johnson is a lifelong ocean sports enthusiast now living in
Sonoma County. On Sunday October 10, she and three companions set off
from Goat Rock Beach south of Jenner for the short paddle southward to
Arched Rock (another Arch Rock lies north of Jenner). Rosemary was
paddling a borrowed blue Frenzy, which is a plastic sit-on-top boat just
nine feet long. Her friend Rick Larson, on his second kayak trip ever, was
on a Scupper, and one of the others paddled a Kiwi, which is also a very
short kayak.
As the four paddlers approached Arched Rock, Rosemary veered off from the group and headed around the rock.
Rick and the others soon followed at some distance. Rosemary felt a powerful jolt and flew off the top of her boat.
Rick saw a shark perhaps 16 feet long knock the boat entirely out of the water, and he believes Rosemary
flew 12 to 14 feet into the air. Rosemary landed in the water, and briefly felt something solid
underfoot. She thinks she landed on the shark. Wearing a wetsuit but no life vest, she had to swim in one direction to
nab her paddle, then back the other way to get to her boat. She remained calm, believing that she had merely struck a
rock. Her approaching companions were less than calm, having seen the "monster" that hit her boat. Rick states that
the shark's mouth encompassed almost the whole width of the Frenzy.
Rosemary hopped back on her kayak, but immediately capsized. She re-entered a second time and attempted to head
toward shore, but had difficulty controlling the boat. When she capsized again, her friends saw the bite marks on her
hull and realized that her boat was tippy and unmanageable because it was taking on water. They quickly improvised
a rescue, with Rosemary riding belly down and head aft on the front of Rick's Scupper-"the only boat that could take
me"-and the other paddlers towing the punctured boat. The group returned to the beach without further difficulty.
Back on dry land, the party reported the incident to Sonoma State Beaches rangers and inspected the boat. The
damage measures 20 by 15 inches and lies entirely below the waterline approximately beneath the seat. A jagged
crack runs perpendicular to the line of tooth marks. The pattern differs from the evidence left on Ken Kelton's boat,
which shows tooth marks on both deck and hull (see "Ano Nuevo Revisited," Bay Currents, Dec. '92). Ken's shark
held his boat for five to ten seconds, while Rosemary's contact was a collision rather than a grab-and-shake. Although
it's common for sharks to intentionally release their prey after the initial attack, it is also possible that this shark
simply bit more than it could chew, and Rosemary's boat popped out of its jaw like a watermelon seed between your
fingers.
A researcher at Bodega Bay Marine Lab told the state park folks the size of the bite marks is consistent with a Great White up to 14 feet and 1500 pounds. Photos of the bite mark have been sent to shark expert Dr.
Mark Marks at Humboldt State for more detailed analysis.
Park Rangers posted the beaches from Russian River to Bodega Head with
shark warnings for five days after the attack, on the reasoning that Great Whites
typically feed in an area for a few days and then move on. Of the numerous
press accounts of the attack, the silliest was in the Santa Rosa Press-Democrat,
which stated that "(Head Ranger Brian) Hickey said rangers don't know if the
shark attacked on the first or last day it was in the Goat Rock area." Evidently
the reporter was surprised that Hickey didn't have a copy of the shark's MISTIX
reservation.
Rosemary and Rick visited the October 27 BASK general meeting, where
Rosemary was peppered with questions, a few of them pertinent, and awarded a
shark tee shirt and refrigerator magnet. Ken Kelton, BASK's own poster child
for shark survival, greeted Rosemary, saying "You and I are members of a very
exclusive club." Most of us are happy to see that club remain small.
How are such PREDICTIONS made?
M. Winking Unit 6-4 page 149
HINT: Use your Trend Line
Sec 6.4 - Describing Data Two Variable Data Name:
How do these researchers determine the approximate size of the
sharks based on the bite marks alone?
One measurement that is considered is the width of the mouth.
First, researchers have to collect data on several sharks and then
make a scatter plot. Use the Numbers below to make a scatter plot.
Mouth
Width (inches) 16" 18" 12" 17" 11" 15" 17" 16" 21"
Length of
Shark (feet) 12.3' 16.2'
10.4' 13.6' 8.2' 11.7' 14.7' 13.6' 16.9'
1. Which variable above (Mouth Width or
Shark Length) should be the
independent variable (the input, x)?
Why?
2. Which variable above (Mouth Width or
Shark Length) should be the dependent
variable (the output, y)? Why?
3. Make a SCATTER PLOT of the
data at the right.
4. A trend line is a single straight line that
best goes through the ‘center’ of all of the
data points.
(DO NOT JUST CONNECT THE POINTS)
Fit a TREND LINE through the
data points. (Using a piece of uncooked spaghetti
works well to estimate placement.)
5. Using this trend line, predict the size of a shark based on the width of the mouth.
Next, give the approximate size of a shark that has a mouth width of 23".
6. Is your prediction in question #5 the exact same as everyone else in your class?
If it is NOT the same, whose prediction do you think is more accurate?
Who created a better trend line? Discuss.
7. What should be the properties of the BEST possible trend line using the given data? Discuss.
8. When 2 sets of data have a relatively linear relationship the data is either described as having a
POSTIVE or NEGATIVE correlation. The data correlation is POSITIVE if both data sets move in
the same direction (i.e. as one variable increases so does the other). The data correlation is
NEGATIVE if the data sets move in opposite directions (i.e. as one variable increases the other
decreases). What type of association does this data show?
23”

M. Winking Unit 6-4 page 150
9. Most trend lines that are considered to be a “good fit” will be balanced such that the total RESIDUAL above
and below the trend line is equal. RESIDUAL can be defined as the difference between the actual value (y)
and expected value . A more succinct definition, RESIDUAL can be described as the vertical distance
each data point is away from the trend line (with signed difference for above and below the trend line).
Find the RESIDUALs for each of the TREND LINES below (the SCATTER PLOT is the same in each graph).
10. What do all 4 trend lies above have in common? (optional: what is the approximate residual of your trend line from earlier)
11. To better analyze which trend line is best, it is common to consider comparing the sum of the squares of the
residuals. Which trend line do you think is the best based on this new information? Is it the one you expected?

12. The line that minimizes the squares is called the LEAST SQUARES REGRESSION LINE. Most scientific
calculators are capable of determining the equation of this trend line. Consider again the data about sharks.
The following are the directions for the TI-83/84:
1) First, it will be helpful to turn on additional diagnostic information in your calculator.
…….…
2) Under the Stat menu, press . (This just resets the list menus)
3) Next, press
4) If there is OLD data already in the lists that needs to be cleared press the
up arrow, , to highlight L1 and then press to clear out
the old data. Do the same for L2 if it has OLD data that needs to be
cleared.
5) Next, enter the Shark’s Mouth Size in L1 and the Length of the Shark in L2.
6) Return to the home screen by pressing and then to calculate the
linear regression press .
7) This represents the an equation of a line that minimizes the total residuals squared.
Fill in the blanks to complete the LEAST SQUARES REGRESSION LINE equation.
y = x +
Use this equation to reattempt your prediction of a shark with a 23” mouth.
y = (23) + =
Now, was this close to your original prediction?
13. When a prediction is made between two given data points the prediction is called an INTERPOLATION.
When a prediction is made outside the range of given data points the prediction is an EXTRAPOLATION.
Which type of prediction was used when you predicted the length of a shark with a 23” wide mouth?
14. In the movie JAWS the shark was approximately 35 feet in
length, based on the equation you just calculated, how wide
would his mouth be? (careful the length might be represented by x)
Would it be large enough to bite the back end of a boat
(consider even a small boat is 48 inches wide)?

15. A calculation called the correlation coefficient (r) is used to measure the extent to which the data for the
two variables show a linear relationship. The closer the value is to 1 or –1 the stronger the linear
relationship.
16. Match the correct Correlation Coefficient with the correct scatter plot:
r ≈ 0. 98
r ≈ – 0. 96
r ≈ 0.61
r ≈ 0.17
17. Create a scatter plot and approximate a trend line of best fit based on the data below
a.
b. Using your calculator determine the approximate linear regression line that best fits the data.
c. Use your model, to predict the 0-60mph time of a car that costs $30 K?
d. Was your prediction in problem (part c) an extrapolation or
interpolation?
e. Use your model, to predict how much a car would cost that can do 0 – 60 mph in 4.0 seconds.
