Solution

a.

To create: the frequency table for the given data.

  PRECALCULUS:GRAPHICAL,...-NASTA ED., Chapter 10.2, Problem 36E , additional homework tip  1

Given information:

The average wind speeds for one year at 44 climatic data centers around the United States are as follows:

  9.0, 6.9, 9.1, 9.2, 10.2, 12.5, 12.0, 11.2, 12.9, 10.3, 10.6, 10.9, 8.7, 10.3, 11.0, 7.7, 11.4, 7.9, 9.6, 8.0, 10.7, 9.3, 7.9, 6.2, 8.3, 8.9, 9.3, 11.6, 10.6, 9.0, 8.2, 9.4, 10.6, 9.5, 6.3, 9.1, 7.9, 9.7, 8.8, 6.9, 8.7, 9.0, 8.9, 9.3

Concept Used:

The number of leaves for a particular stem is the frequency of observations within each stem interval. Frequencies are often recorded in a frequency table.

Calculation:

The interval are 66.9,77.9,88.9,99.9,1010.9,1111.9and1212.9 .

The frequency table is shown below:

Concept Used:

A histogram, closely related to a stem plot, displays the information of a frequency table

Calculation:

The frequency table is shown below:

  PRECALCULUS:GRAPHICAL,...-NASTA ED., Chapter 10.2, Problem 36E , additional homework tip  4

By using the above data, the stem plot is shown below:
