Students conduct a practical, statistical investigation. They decide on a Topic and question, conduct the survey, complete the tally chart, construct a bar graph of the major ideas and make statements about the results.
Students study a box-and-whisker graph of Social Studies marks for 4 classes. They answer questions interpreting the data, and comparing, range and best performance.
Students interpret a graph of taxi company charges to show which company is cheaper and complete a rule for each company's charges. They also identify the distance at which each company charges the same amount.
Students study a table of test results percentages for a range of subjects. Students answer questions involving mean, median, mode and range. They also draw a stem-and-leaf graph.
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 composite dot plot of shots at a basketball hoop by two classes. They identify the mode and range, and make statements about the results.
This practical task requires students to record data, which is read out to them, on a stem-and-leaf graph. The leaves are then ordered into a second graph and the graph interpreted.
