EXERCISES CONCEPTS AND PROCEDURES

1.1. Briefly discuss the difference between textual, tabular, and graphical
presentation of data.

In textual representation, each and every data is represented in a subjective


manner. On the other hand, in tabular form of data; details are mentioned in the
form of tables. While the graphical presentation is the most engaging and
successful way to organize and present statistical data. Simply by glancing at
colorful figures that have been tastefully produced, the significant linkages of data
can be quickly observed.

1.2. Identify and briefly discuss the different types of graphs and charts.
Area
This form of graph shows quantitative data in a graphical format. It is built on the
basis of a line chart. Colors, texture, and hatchings are widely used to accentuate
the area between the axis and the line
Bar
This form of data presentation is made up of equal-width bars or rectangular prisms.
In single or paired bar graphs, it can be displayed horizontally or vertically
Column
This is a data visualization in which each category is represented by a rectangle
whose height is equal to the values being plotted. Vertical bar charts are another
name for column chart
Pie
This shows the connections between the various elements of a data set. If you wish
to depict how a whole is divided, this is the graph to use. Angles and sectors should
be proportional to the data's percentage components.
Doughnut
This is a built-in chart type. Doughnut charts are used to show a "part-to-whole"
relationship, with all portions representing 100%. When displaying data with a
minimal number of categories, a doughnut chart is the ideal option.

Line
This form of data visualization depicts the relationships between two sets of
numbers. This type is frequently used to forecast long-term growth trends such as
sales and population.
Scatter
The associations between two variables are depicted using points plotted on a
Cartesian plane. It's similar to drawing a line graph, except there's no need to
connect the points.

use to travel to School. The results were walking 15, car 10, tricycle 25, and
bicycle 6. Construct a pie chart with percentage using this data.

b. Interpret the chart using the following guide questions:


 What flavor is preferred by most drinkers?
Orange
 What flavor is next preferred by juice drinkers?
Pineapple
 What do the charts tell you about the sample of juice drinkers?
It tells about their preferences of the tetra pack juice drink. Out of 200
people, 35% of them prefers Orange flavor,25% prefers Pineappple,
20% of them prefers Mango,13% prefers
 If you were the owner of the grocery mart, what would be the
significance of the taste test results?
It’s important because I can prioritize the flavor of juice that is needed
to be restock.

1.1. Briefly discuss the steps in making frequency distribution table. Illustrate with
the help of an example.
Step 1: Calculate the range of the data set
The range is the difference between the largest value and the smallest
value. We need this to figure out how much “space” we need to divide into
groups. In this example:
Step 2: Divide the range by the number of groups you want and then round
up
Doing this allows us to figure out how large each group is. It’s as if we are
going to cut a board into equal pieces. In step 1, we measured how long the
board is and now we are deciding how big each piece will be.
Step 3: Use the class width to create your groups I’m going to start at the
smallest number we have is 40 to because 40 +44. Its in the table and it is
labeled as “classes”.
Step 4: Find the frequency for each group This part is probably the most
tedious and the main reason why it is unrealistic to make a frequency
distribution or histogram by hand for a very large data set. We are going to
count how many points are in each group. Let’s start with our first group:40
to 44. We want to count how many points are between 40 and 44NOT
IINCLUDING 44. You see the overlap between the groups right? That’s to
account for decimals and we keep it even when we don’t have any. The right
hand endpoint of any group isn’t included in that group. It goes in the next
group.

1.2. Briefly explain the difference between grouped and ungrouped data.
Grouping of data plays a significant role when we have to deal with large
data. This information can also be displayed using a pictograph or a bar
graph. Data formed by arranging individual observations of a variable into
groups, so that a frequency distribution table of these groups provides a
convenient way of summarizing or analyzing the data is termed as grouped
data. While Ungrouped data is the type of distribution in which the data is
individually given in a raw form. For example, the scores of a batsman in last
5 matches are given as 45,34,2,77 and 80.
