MA19.GDA.9
Represent the distribution of univariate quantitative data with plots on the real number line, choosing a format (dot plot, histogram, or box plot) most appropriate to the data set, and represent the distribution of bivariate quantitative data with a scatter plot. Extend from simple cases by hand to more complex cases involving large data sets using technology.

Knowledge
Students know:
- Techniques for constructing dot plots, histograms, scatter plots and box plots from a set of data.
Skills
Students are able to:
- Choose from among data display (dot plots, histograms, box plots, scatter plots) to convey significant features of data.
- Accurately construct dot plots, histograms, and box plots.
- Accurately construct scatter plots using technology to organize and analyze the data.
Understanding
Students understand that:
