Students need to interpret data about travel time to school and common after-school activities and identify which statement is true from a list of given statements.
Students construct a composite bar graph on areas of female employment in 1956 and 1996. They also answer questions interpreting and comparing the data.
Students construct a composite dot plot of shots at a basketball hoop by two classes. They identify the mode and range, and make statements about the results.
Students display data on a back-to-back stem-and-leaf graph to show the times taken to complete two walks. The longer of the two walks is then identified.
Students construct a back-to-back stem-and-leaf graph for heights of trees. They then answer a question on range and make a statement comparing the heights of akeake and kōhūhū.
This practical task requires students to record data, which is read out to them, on a back-to-back stem-and-leaf graph. The leaves are then ordered into a second graph and the graph interpreted.
Students are required to construct a composite bar graph based on Statistics New Zealand Time Use Survey data and are then required to make comparative statements based on gender.
