Statistics

Enter the data you collected when measuring items to the nearest tenth of a meter. Represent your quantitative data using a bar graph of your choice. Then, print your final copy to the ColorLab.

Groups of tens can make computation more efficient! Whether you are estimating, rounding, multiplying, or dividing, friendly tens come in handy (get it...ten fingers). After you finish exploring patterns using the calculators, watch each tutorial below.

Discuss patterns you observe HINT: try and put it in a ratio (x/y)

*Hint: think about which shapes you know the area formula for.

You have 1,200 ft of fencing and are asked to design a playground with three sections. Be mindful that you will have to provide the dimensions (perimeter) and area of each section.
