AB
meanThe same as "average".
meanAdd all the numbers in a set and divide the sum by the amount of numbers in the set: {3+4+5} / 3 = 4
medianThe middle number in a set of numbers that are listed in order.
median{3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9}5.5 is the ____ of this data set.
medianIn the middle; half the number of data points in a set are bigger and half are smaller.
median{3,4,5,6,7,9} If there are an even number of data points in a set, add the two middle numbers and divide by 2:[5+6] / 2 = 5.5
median{3,4,5,6,7}If there are an odd number of data points in a set, find the middle number: 5
modeThe number that occurs most often in a data set
mode{3,3,4,4,4,5,5,6,7,7,7,7,7,8,8,8} 7 is the ___ of this data set.
rangeThe difference between the greatest number and the least in a data set.
range{3,4,5,6,7,8,9} The____ of this data set is 6.
outlierThe number in an ordered data set that is the farthest away from the number behind it.
outlier{2,4,5,6,11} The ____ of this data set is 11 because 6 and 11 are the two numbers that are farthest from each other.
probability, The chance that a favorable outcome will occur, measured as a ratio of the total possible outcomes
ratioCompares two (or more amounts); written as 3 : 4 or as a fraction 3/4
outcomeOne of the possible results of a probability experiment
outcomeToss a coin one time and there are two possible _____s: heads or tai
favorable outcomeThe result you hope to get in a probability experiment
favorable outcomeYou roll a number cube one time, hoping for a 6. 1/6 is the likelihood of a ____.
impossible, There is a 0% chance ("0/1") of getting a particular result in a probability experiment.
impossibleYou have four playing cards numbered: {2,3,5,7}. The likelihood of drawing an "8" is ___.
certain, There is a 100% chance (1/1) of getting a particular result in a probability experiment.
certain12 green gummy bears in a bag: The likelihood of taking a green gummy is ___.
more likely, There is more than a 50% chance (1/2 or more) of getting a particular result in a probability experiment.
more likely12 gummy bears in a bag: 3 orange, 8 red, and 1 green. Taking a red gummy bear out of the bag is ____.
less likely12 gummy bears in a bag: 3 orange, 8 red, 1 green.Taking an orange gummy bear out of the bag is ____.
less likely, There is less than a 50% chance (less than 1/2) of getting a particular result in a probability experiment.
equally likely, Outcomes in an experiment that have the same probability of occurring are ______________.
equally likely12 gummy bears in a bag: 4 orange, 4 red, and 4 green.Taking an orange or green gummy bear out of the bag is _____.
possible, Something can happen. There is some chance--even if it is very unlikely.
number line, Line marked with numbers and used to show math operations
tally chart, Uses marks to record counting
stem-and-leaf plot, Graph where a set of data is arranged by place value. The "leaf" usually shows the last digit of the number--the 1s place
line plot, Number line long enough to show all numbers in a data set with an "X" or dot corresponding to each number
