You can see which has the largest spread of data....
Where the extreme values lie...
The bigger the box the wider the spread of half of the data...
and vice versa
A stem-and-leaf plot is a convenient way to organize data using numerical order and place value.
Dot plots represent the values of a data-set which is classified according to two variables.
You can compare two different data sets on the same chart.
Our eyes are capable of seeing many patterns in visual displays such as scatter plots that would never be disclosed using summary statistics.
I think line plots are used to collect a numerous of data.
you use it to compare 2 different sets of data
Compare the shape,center,and spread of the data in the box plots with the data for stores A and B in the two box plots in example 2.
It makes Data simpler to compare as opposed to a chart
It makes Data simpler to compare as opposed to a chart
Line plots are used to figure out how much of one value is in a set of data. Histograms are used to show/compare data in what seems like a bar graph, but instead it used to compare data over a period of time, number of a value, ect. ( intervals)
Yes, plots can exist within subplots in a larger visualization. This is a technique in data visualization where multiple plots are arranged within a single figure to facilitate comparison and analysis of different aspects of the data. Each subplot can represent a different segment of the data or a different perspective on the same data.
A stem-and-leaf plot is a convenient way to organize data using numerical order and place value.
Tables, line plots, and bar graphs all help display information. Tables serve best to compare information that isn't necessarily graph-able. A line plot helps show the progression of the data, and bar graphs help compare data between multiple entities.
how should i know
when you are specifically comparing 2 sets of data (2 #'s, 2 percents, 2 rates ect.)
Dot plots represent the values of a data-set which is classified according to two variables.
Easy to compare multiple continuous data sets
