1
00:00:00,740 --> 00:00:02,990
A statistician for
a basketball team

2
00:00:02,990 --> 00:00:04,800
tracked the number
of points that each

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,600
of the 12 players on the
team had in one game.

4
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:12,010
And then made a stem-and-leaf
plot to show the data.

5
00:00:12,010 --> 00:00:14,040
And sometimes it's
called a stem-plot.

6
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,102
How many points
did the team score?

7
00:00:16,102 --> 00:00:18,310
And when you first look at
this plot right over here,

8
00:00:18,310 --> 00:00:19,950
it seems a little
hard to understand.

9
00:00:19,950 --> 00:00:22,444
Understand we have
0, 1, 2 under leaf

10
00:00:22,444 --> 00:00:23,860
you have all of
these digits here.

11
00:00:23,860 --> 00:00:26,190
How does this relate
to the number of points

12
00:00:26,190 --> 00:00:29,260
each student, or each
player, actually scored?

13
00:00:29,260 --> 00:00:31,750
And the way to interpret
a stem-and-leaf plot

14
00:00:31,750 --> 00:00:33,910
is the leafs contain--
at least the way

15
00:00:33,910 --> 00:00:38,470
that this statistician used it--
the leaf contains the smallest

16
00:00:38,470 --> 00:00:41,400
digit, or the ones digit,
in the number of points

17
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:42,860
that each player scored.

18
00:00:42,860 --> 00:00:45,250
And the stem contains
the tens digits.

19
00:00:45,250 --> 00:00:48,870
And usually the leaf will
contain the rightmost digit,

20
00:00:48,870 --> 00:00:50,700
or the ones digit,
and then the stem

21
00:00:50,700 --> 00:00:52,840
will contain all of
the other digits.

22
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,480
And what's useful
about this is it

23
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,070
gives kind of a distribution
of where the players were.

24
00:00:57,070 --> 00:00:59,310
You see that most of
the players scored

25
00:00:59,310 --> 00:01:01,440
points that started with a 0.

26
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,209
Then a few more scored
points that started with a 1.

27
00:01:04,209 --> 00:01:07,980
And then only one score scored
points to started with a 2,

28
00:01:07,980 --> 00:01:09,450
and it was actually 20 points.

29
00:01:09,450 --> 00:01:11,977
So I'm going to actually
write down all of this data

30
00:01:11,977 --> 00:01:13,810
in a way that maybe
you're a little bit more

31
00:01:13,810 --> 00:01:15,420
used to understanding it.

32
00:01:15,420 --> 00:01:18,920
So I'm going to write
the 0's in purple.

33
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,020
So there's, let's see, 1,
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 players

34
00:01:23,020 --> 00:01:25,070
had 0 as the first digit.

35
00:01:25,070 --> 00:01:28,462
So 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

36
00:01:31,330 --> 00:01:33,040
I wrote seven 0's.

37
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:37,090
And then this player also
had a 0 in his ones digit.

38
00:01:37,090 --> 00:01:39,800
This player, I'm going to
try to do all the colors,

39
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,600
this player also had
a 0 in his ones digit.

40
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,220
This player right here
had a 2 in his ones digit,

41
00:01:46,220 --> 00:01:48,710
so he scored a
total of 2 points.

42
00:01:48,710 --> 00:01:51,793
This player, let me
do orange, this player

43
00:01:51,793 --> 00:01:54,330
had 4 for his ones digit.

44
00:01:54,330 --> 00:01:58,580
This player had 7
for his ones digit.

45
00:01:58,580 --> 00:02:02,480
Then this player had
7 for his ones digit.

46
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,960
And then, let me see, I'm
almost using all the colors,

47
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,530
this player had 9
for his ones digit.

48
00:02:08,530 --> 00:02:11,460
So the way to read this is, you
had one player with 0 points.

49
00:02:11,460 --> 00:02:14,850
0, 2, 4, 7, 9 and 9.

50
00:02:14,850 --> 00:02:16,870
But you can see, and
it's kind of silly

51
00:02:16,870 --> 00:02:18,407
saying the zero
was a tens digit,

52
00:02:18,407 --> 00:02:19,990
you could have even
put a blank there.

53
00:02:19,990 --> 00:02:21,615
But the 0 lets us
know that they didn't

54
00:02:21,615 --> 00:02:24,700
score anything in
the tens place.

55
00:02:24,700 --> 00:02:27,940
But these are the actual
scores for those seven players.

56
00:02:27,940 --> 00:02:31,700
Now let's go to the next row
in the stem-and-leaf plot.

57
00:02:31,700 --> 00:02:34,060
So over here, all of
the digits start with,

58
00:02:34,060 --> 00:02:37,760
or all of the points start with
1, for each of the players.

59
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,940
And there's four of them.

60
00:02:40,940 --> 00:02:44,710
So 1, 1, 1, and 1.

61
00:02:44,710 --> 00:02:46,600
And then we have this
player over here,

62
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:51,250
his ones digit, or her
ones digit, is a 1.

63
00:02:51,250 --> 00:02:54,090
So this player,
this represents 11.

64
00:02:54,090 --> 00:02:57,150
1 in the tens place,
1 in the ones place.

65
00:02:57,150 --> 00:02:59,370
This player over
here also got 11.

66
00:02:59,370 --> 00:03:02,770
1 in the tens place,
1 in the ones place.

67
00:03:02,770 --> 00:03:06,080
This player, let me
do orange, this player

68
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,350
has 3 in the ones place.

69
00:03:08,350 --> 00:03:10,250
So he or she scored 13 points.

70
00:03:10,250 --> 00:03:14,070
1 in the tens place,
3 in the ones place.

71
00:03:14,070 --> 00:03:15,770
13 points.

72
00:03:15,770 --> 00:03:18,020
And then I will
do this in purple.

73
00:03:18,020 --> 00:03:20,760
This player has 8
in their ones place.

74
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,160
So he or she scored 18 points.

75
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,710
1 in the tens place,
8 in the ones place.

76
00:03:25,710 --> 00:03:27,190
18 points.

77
00:03:27,190 --> 00:03:29,390
And then finally,
you have this player

78
00:03:29,390 --> 00:03:33,220
that has the tens digit is a 2.

79
00:03:33,220 --> 00:03:37,296
And then the ones digit is a 0.

80
00:03:37,296 --> 00:03:38,420
I'll circle that in yellow.

81
00:03:38,420 --> 00:03:40,160
It is a 0.

82
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,030
So he or she scored 20 points.

83
00:03:43,030 --> 00:03:45,370
So looking at the
stem-and-leaf plot,

84
00:03:45,370 --> 00:03:48,179
we were able to extract out
all of the number of points

85
00:03:48,179 --> 00:03:49,470
that all of the players scored.

86
00:03:49,470 --> 00:03:51,261
And once again, what
was useful about this,

87
00:03:51,261 --> 00:03:54,110
is you see how many players
scored between 0 and 9 points,

88
00:03:54,110 --> 00:03:55,700
including 9 points.

89
00:03:55,700 --> 00:03:58,210
How many scored between
10 and 19 points,

90
00:03:58,210 --> 00:04:00,450
and then how many scored
20 points or over.

91
00:04:00,450 --> 00:04:02,620
And you see the distribution
right over here.

92
00:04:02,620 --> 00:04:04,360
But let's actually
answer the question

93
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,360
that they're asking
us to answer.

94
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,190
How many points
did the team score?

95
00:04:09,190 --> 00:04:10,920
So here we just
have to add up all

96
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,530
of these numbers
right over here.

97
00:04:12,530 --> 00:04:16,230
So we're going to add up, I'll
start with the largest, so 20

98
00:04:16,230 --> 00:04:27,120
plus 18 plus 13 plus 11 plus
11-- 13, 11, 11-- plus 9 plus 7

99
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:33,177
plus 7 again plus 4 plus 2.

100
00:04:33,177 --> 00:04:34,010
Did I do that right?

101
00:04:34,010 --> 00:04:38,570
We have two 11's, then a 9,
then two 7's, then a 4 then a 2,

102
00:04:38,570 --> 00:04:40,770
and then these two characters
didn't score anything.

103
00:04:40,770 --> 00:04:42,353
So let's add up all
of these together.

104
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:53,110
So 0 plus 8 is 8, plus 3 is
11, plus 1 is 12, plus 1 is 13,

105
00:04:53,110 --> 00:05:03,490
plus 9 is 22, plus
7 is 27, 34, 38, 40.

106
00:05:03,490 --> 00:05:05,060
So that gets us to 40.

107
00:05:05,060 --> 00:05:06,590
Let me do that one more time.

108
00:05:06,590 --> 00:05:22,232
8, 11, 11, 12, 13, 22, 29, 29,
and then 29, 36, 40, and 42.

109
00:05:22,232 --> 00:05:23,940
Looks like I actually
might have messed--

110
00:05:23,940 --> 00:05:25,148
let me do that one more time.

111
00:05:25,148 --> 00:05:27,030
This is the hardest
part, adding these up.

112
00:05:27,030 --> 00:05:28,404
So let me try that
one last time.

113
00:05:28,404 --> 00:05:30,280
I'm just going to
state where my sum is.

114
00:05:30,280 --> 00:05:40,660
So 0, 8, add 3, 11, 12,
13, 22, 29, 36, 40, 42.

115
00:05:40,660 --> 00:05:42,660
So it's a good thing that
I double checked that.

116
00:05:42,660 --> 00:05:44,720
I made a mistake the first time.

117
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:49,490
4 plus 2 is 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

118
00:05:49,490 --> 00:05:52,200
So we get to 102 points.

119
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:57,540
The team, in total,
scored 102 points.
