This quiz provides a comprehensive assessment of student understanding of stem-and-leaf plots, box-and-whisker plots, mean, median, range, and interquartile range. Students analyze data sets presented in multiple formats and demonstrate their ability to interpret graphical displays as well as compute measures of center and variability.
Questions require students to determine the IQR from both raw data and box plots, identify quartile locations, interpret medians, calculate ranges, and compare quartile spreads. Students also compute mean values from real-world contexts such as plant heights, fish weights, and race times. Because the quiz blends computation with graphical interpretation, it assesses both procedural accuracy and conceptual understanding.
This resource works well as a unit quiz, review assessment, or checkpoint within a statistics and data analysis unit. The multiple-choice format allows for quick grading while still requiring careful reasoning and precision.
