6th Grade Math 16.4c, Interpreting a Dot Plot, Outliers

A dot plot can give us a visual picture of the spread, center, and shape of a data distribution. We can describe the spread of a data set by identifying the least and greatest values. An outlier is a data value that is much greater or much less than the other values in the set. We can look for outliers to describe the spread of data. We can describe the center of a data set in terms of peaks, clusters, or symmetry. A symmetric distribution has approximately the same number of data values on either side of the center. We can find the mean and median of data points in a dot plot. We can see if removing an outlier would change the mean or the median.
