Question

1. create a dot plot to show the number of volunteer hours worked for each student over ten weeks. be sure to provide a title and a key.

miguel
3 4 5 6 7 8 9
alexandra
3 4 5 6 7 8 9

1. describe the distribution of each data set.

Explanation:

First, formalize the dot plots with proper labels, then analyze each data set's shape, center, and spread.

1. For the dot plots: Add a clear title, label the horizontal axis, and define the key.
2. For distribution descriptions: Assess if data clusters, skews, note the typical value (center) and range of values.

Answer:

1. ## Formalized Dot Plots:

Title: Weekly Volunteer Hours (10 Weeks) for Two Students

Key: Each dot = 1 week of volunteer hours

Miguel's Hours:

Hours	3	4	5	6	7	8	9

Alejandra's Hours:

Hours	3	4	5	6	7	8	9

1. ## Distribution Descriptions:

• Miguel's data: Skewed left. Most of his volunteer hours cluster at the higher end (8-9 hours per week), with fewer weeks at lower hour counts (5-7). The center is around 8-9 hours, and his hours range from 5 to 9.
• Alejandra's data: Roughly symmetric. Her hours are evenly spread across 3-9, with a slight cluster at 5-6 hours. The center is around 5-6 hours, and her hours range from 3 to 9.
