Data and Probability

STEP 1 Before you begin Chapter 11

• Read each statement.


• Decide whether you agree (A) or disagree (D) with the statement.
• Write A or D in the first column OR if you are not sure whether
you agree or disagree, write NS (not sure).

1. A tally chart is a way to keep track of data using tally
marks to record the results.
2. A bar graph is a graph that compares data by
using bars of different lengths or heights to show
the values.
3. A line plot is a graph that used columns of Xs above
a number line to show frequency of data.
4. Probability is a number between 0 and 10 that
measures the likelihood of an event happening.

5. A survey is a way of collecting data.
6. Prediction and probability are the same thing.
7. An outcome is a possible result of an experiment.
8. In a coin toss, you are equally likely to flip a head or
a tail.
9. A bar graph uses tally marks to record survey results.
10. A line plot can be used to display survey results.

STEP 2 After you complete Chapter 1

• Reread each statement and complete the last column by


entering an A (agree) or a D (disagree).
• Did any of your opinions about the statements change from the
first column?
• For those statements that you mark with a D, use a separate
sheet of paper to explain why you disagree. Use examples, if
possible.

Bar Graphs

Mark takes a survey of some third-grade students to find out


which flavor of juice they like best. He shows the results in
a chart. Then Mark uses the chart to make a bar graph.
A bar graph is a graph that shows data using bars. The scale
along one side of the bar graph is a set of equally spaced marks
to tell how many.
The first bar in the graph tells you that 8 students like apple juice.

Line Plots

Chapter Resources
Like a vertical bar graph, a line plot shows information vertically.
The base of the line plot is just that, a line, where we can place
numbers. Unlike a bar graph, a line plot doesn’t have a vertical
scale. Above each number or word at the base, we plot an X to
represent how often a number is represented.
Let’s make a line plot together. We’ll plot the number of chores
Paula did last week. On Sunday, Thursday, and Saturday, she did
4 chores a day. On Monday through Wednesday, she did
2 chores a day. Friday, she did none. Use the space below to
make your line plot.
1. Make a line along the bottom of the page, but leave room for
numbers below the line.
2. Write the numbers 0–5 in order under the line. Space the
numbers as evenly as you can.
3. For each day Paula completed the number of chores shown
on the line plot put one X above that number.

Watching Events Over Time

Chapter Resources
Do your own experiment and make a line graph. You will need a pencil,
three friends, a clock or watch with a second hand, and a soft rubber ball.
One friend will be the timer. Another will be the counter. The third friend
will be the recorder. You will bounce the ball.

Use the table and line chart below.

When the timer says “go,” start bouncing the ball. The counter counts the
bounces out loud. Every 10 seconds, the timer says “time” and the recorder uses
the table to write down the number of bounces.

Time in Seconds 0 10 20 30 40 50 60
Total Number of Bounces 0

Stop after one minute. Use the data in the table to make a line graph. Plot the
total number of bounces you had after 10 seconds, after 20 seconds, and so on.
Draw straight lines from point to point.

How many total bounces did you have in 60 seconds?

What did you notice about the number of bounces you had over the period
