A A frequency frequency distribution distribution is is a a tabular tabular summary summary of of data data showing showing the the frequency frequency (or (or number) number) of of items items in in each each of of several several non-overlapping non-overlapping classes. classes.

A bar graph is a graphical device for depicting qualitative data. 0n one a%is (usually the hori1ontal a%is)2 we specify the labels that are used for each of the classes. A frequency2 relative frequency2 or percent frequency scale can be used for the other a%is (usually the vertical a%is). 3sing a bar of fi%ed width drawn above each class label2 we e%tend the height appropriately. The bars are separated to emphasi1e the fact that each class is a separate category.

'ie Chart
The pie chart is a commonly used graphical device for presenting relative frequency distributions for qualitative data.
irst draw a circle; then use the relative frequencies to subdivide the circle into sectors that correspond to the relative frequency for each class. <ince there are '5+ degrees in a circle2 a class with a relative frequency of .&( would consume .&(('5+) . )+ degrees of the circle.

0ne of the simplest graphical summaries of data is a dot plot. A hori1ontal a%is shows the range of data values. Then each data value is represented by a dot placed above the a%is.

A stem-and-leaf display shows both the rank order and shape of the distribution of the data. 9t is similar to a histogram on its side2 but it has the advantage of showing the actual data values. The first digits of each data item are arranged to the left of a vertical line. To the right of the vertical line we record the last digit for each item in rank order. $ach line in the display is referred to as a stem. $ach digit on a stem is a leaf.

The scatter diagram and trendline indicate a positive relationship between the number of interceptions and the number of points scored. Cigher points scored are associated with a higher number of interceptions. The relationship is not perfect; all plotted points in the scatter diagram are not on a straight line.
