Practice Sheet (Review) and Statistics Task List
I am gone in the afternoon, so here's the plan:
1. Get the sheet from the front table and complete both sides before turning in for credit. Show your evidence of how you got the numbers, not just the answer. So I know you get it.
2. Head to this Task List for more practice and a new skill called Stem and Leaf Plots.
If you really like or dislike stem and leaf plots here's a video that might be helpful
