Chapter 11.1, Problem 6E

To determine

To calculate: to make an ordered stem-and-leaf plot of the data.

Answer to Problem 6E

The ordered stem-and-leaf plot is Ordered plot

  $\begin{array}{l}\text{30 0 6 9}\\ \text{31 2 4}\\ \text{32 }\\ \text{33}\\ \text{34 3}\\ \text{35 0 0 7}\\ \text{36 2 7 9}\\ 37\text{ 8}\\ \text{38 1 7 9}\\ \text{39 1 5}\end{array}$

Explanation of Solution

Given information: consider the data provided in the question.

  $350,314,378,391,395,300,357,309,312,343,389,350,306,387,381$ .

Calculation: to find the ordered stem-and-leaf plot of the data write the stem first. Then record each distance by writing its ones’ digit on the same line as its corresponding stem.

Ordered plot

  $\begin{array}{l}\text{30 0 6 9}\\ \text{31 2 4}\\ \text{32 }\\ \text{33}\\ \text{34 3}\\ \text{35 0 0 7}\\ \text{36 2 7 9}\\ 37\text{ 8}\\ \text{38 1 7 9}\\ \text{39 1 5}\end{array}$

Hence,

Thus ,Ordered plot

  $\begin{array}{l}\text{30 0 6 9}\\ \text{31 2 4}\\ \text{32 }\\ \text{33}\\ \text{34 3}\\ \text{35 0 0 7}\\ \text{36 2 7 9}\\ 37\text{ 8}\\ \text{38 1 7 9}\\ \text{39 1 5}\end{array}$
