6th Grade Data Math Study Guide

This document is a study guide for a 6th grade data and math test containing 16 multiple choice and short answer questions. It covers topics like analyzing box plots, dot plots, histograms, normal distributions, outliers, contingency tables, and scatter plots. Key details assessed include identifying median, quartiles, and interquartile range from a box plot; comparing shape and measures of center/spread from dot plots; calculating values from histograms and normal distributions; adjusting mean when removing outliers; and interpreting residual plots.

4. A survey of how many hours of music 7th grade students listen to on average for a week was conducted and when the
data was graphed it turned out to be a normal distribution graph. The mean hours of music students listen to was 6
hours with a standard deviation of 1.5 hours. Make a normal distribution graph below with 3 standard to deviations to
the right and left labeled.

5) A set of data with 100 observation has a mean of 267. There are 3 outliers in the data set with values of 800, 900, and
1400. If we remove the outliers from the data set what is the new mean? ROUDN TO THE NEAREST WHOLE NUMBER.

For questions 6-8 a normal distribution graph is given to you with a mean of 18 and a standard deviation of 4.

6. What percent of the data falls between 26 and 10?

7. What percent of data falls between 22 and 10?

8. What percent of the data is less than 22?

thinks fits the data well. EXPLAIN if the student has picked the correct function for the scatter plot.

13)The outlier of a data set causes the ____________________ (mean/median) to be


greater than the _____________________ (mean/median) when the outlier is in the upper
part of the data set.
