  2. Unit 5 Day 5 HISTOGRAMS

  3. How many paperclips can you hook together in 60 seconds? Histogram Frequency Distribution

  4. Histogram • Good way to display information from large data sets • Width of bar (x-axis) represents interval • Height of bar (y-axis) represents frequency

  5. Histogram

  6. Histogram • Each interval bin should have the same width • Each bin includes the left endpoint value but not the right endpoint value • Bars always touch

  7. Histogram: What’s the difference?

  8. Constructing a histogram: • Determine interval width • 5 to 10 intervals is usually best • Organize data into a frequency table • Distribute data into intervals

  9. Sample Data: How long does the 1161 mile Iditarod take? Construct a bin width of 25.

  10. 235 260 285 310 335 360

  11. Distribution Shapes • Symmetrical • Uniform (rectangular histogram) • Skewed left – longer tail on the left side • Skewed right – longer tail on the right side • Bimodal – two classes with the largest frequencies are separated by at least one class
