Unit 10 Vocabulary

Algebra 1 Statistics Vocabulary

AB
RangeMaximum-Minimum
FrequencyThe amount of times something occurs
MeanThe average (Add up all data points and divide by the number of data points)
MedianThe middle of the data
Quartile 1The median of the lower half of the data
Quartile 3The median of the upper half of the data
MaximumThe largest data point
MinimumThe smallest data point
Five Number SummaryConsists of the min., Q1, med., Q3, and the max. All are used to create a box and whisker plot.
OutlierA data point that is very different from the rest.
Standard Deviationthe “average” distance a data point is away from the mean.
Interquartile rangeQuartile 3 - Quartile 1
Relative Frequencyhow often something occurs divided by the total. To get a percentage, multiply by 100.
Bivariate Data Analysisrelationship between 2 variables
Positive CorrelationBoth variables increase or decrease at the same time. (Move in the same direction.)
Negative CorrelationOne variable increases while the other decreases. (Move in opposite directions.)
Causal RelationshipOne variable affects the other
Linear RegressionBest fit line for a linear model
Correlation Coefficient (r-value)How well the best fit line predicts the model. The closer to 1 or -1 the better it is.
Residual GraphDetermines if the linear model is the best model for the data. The more scattered the dots, the better. You DO NOT want a pattern (ex. Quadratic looking graph).
ResidualY-value minus Y-predicted (get the predicted from your table on the calculator OR plug in the value of x into the best fit line equation.)
