Explanation Approach: A stem-and-leaf display is a method to represent two sets of quantitative data “side by side” for analyzing of the data. It is mostly useful to compare the two sets of data. The side-by-side stem plot is obtained by using the following steps. Step 1: Write the stems in numerical order with the left digit of the data. Step 2: Draw a vertical line to the right and left of the stem. Step 3: On the right, enter the leaves for the right digit of one data set in order increased away from the stem. Step 4: On the left, enter the leaves for the right digit of another data set in the order increased away from the stem. Given: The list of the numbers of home runs that Babe Ruth hit during the seasons he played for the Yankees, and the numbers of home runs that Hank Aaron hit during his best 15 years. Ruth: 54, 59, 35, 41, 46, 25, 47, 60, 54, 46, 49, 46, 41, 34, 22 Aaron: 44, 30, 39, 40, 34, 45, 44, 32, 44, 39, 44, 38, 47, 34, 40 Calculation: From given data, it is observed that the list represent the numbers of home runs that Babe Ruth hit during the seasons he played for the Yankees, and the numbers of home runs that Hank Aaron hit during his best 15 years...
