What is a Stem-and-Leaf plot?
4-5 sentences.

A stem and leaf plot is a special table where each data value is split into a "stem" (the first digit or digits) and a "leaf" (usually the last digit). The "stem" values are listed down, and the "leaf" values go right (or left) from the stem values.

Step-by-step explanation:

Example: Long Jump

Sam got his friends to do a long jump and got these results:

long jump

2.3, 2.5, 2.5, 2.7, 2.8 3.2, 3.6, 3.6, 4.5, 5.0

And here is the stem-and-leaf plot:

StemLeaf

23 5 5 7 8

32 6 6

45

50

Stem "2" Leaf "3" means 2.3

Note:

Say what the stem and leaf mean (Stem "2" Leaf "3" means 2.3)

In this case each leaf is a decimal

It is OK to repeat a leaf value

5.0 has a leaf of "0"

i dont know

step-by-step explanation:

1.4

2.3

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3
