Can anybody tell me what is a stem-and-leaf plot and a example

The following examples provide some practice with stem-and-leaf plots, as well as explaining some details of formatting, and showing how to create a "key" for your plot.

<span> Subjects in a psychological study were timed while completing a certain task. Complete a stem-and-leaf plot for the following list of times: </span>

7.6,  8.1,  9.2,  6.8,  5.9,  6.2,  6.1,  5.8,  7.3,  8.1,  8.8,  7.4,  7.7,  8.2

The first thing I'll do is reorder this list. It isn't required, but it surely makes life easier. My ordered list is:

5.8,  5.9,  6.1,  6.2,  6.8,  7.3,  7.4,  7.6,  7.7,  8.1,  8.1,  8.2,  8.8,  9.2

These values have one decimal place, but the stem-and-leaf plot makes no accomodation for this. The stem-and-leaf plot only looks at the last digit (for the leaves) and all the digits before (for the stem). So I'll have to put a "key" or "legend" on this plot to show what I mean by the numbers in this plot. The ones digits will be the stem values, and the tenths will be the leaves.

Stem<span> and </span>Leaf Plots<span>. A </span>Stem<span> and </span>Leaf Plot<span> is a special table where each data value is split into a "</span>stem" (the first digit or digits) and a "leaf" (usually the last digit).


This example<span> has two lists of values. Since the values are similar, I can </span>plot<span> them all on one </span>stem-and-leaf plot<span> by drawing </span>leaves<span> on either side of the </span>stem<span> I will use the tens digits as the </span>stem<span> values, and the ones digits as the </span>leaves<span>. Since "9" (in the Econ 101 list) has no tens digit, the </span>stem<span> value will be "0".</span>

<span>Hope this helped</span>

Find the x intercept and the y intercept of the graph of the equation <br> 2x+4y=8
maksim [4K]

Answer:

x-intercept: 4

y-intercept: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

finding the x-intercept:

first, substitute y = 0.

2x + 4 x 0 = 8

then, remove the 0.

2x + 0 = 8

then, divide both sides. 2x = 8

so, x = 4.

finding the y-intercept:

first, substitute x = 0.

then, solve.

2 x 0 + 4y = 8

so, y = 2.
