Explain how you would represent the data set {5.25, 5.5, 5.5, 5.75, 6.0} on a line plot. Be sure to describe how many points should be above each value.

Place one point above 5.25, two points above 5.5, one point above 5.75, and one point above 6.0.

Plotting Points On A Line Plot Lesson Plan for Grade 10th Grade

I can represent data sets on a line plot by accurately plotting points.

1
A line plot is created by plotting data points above a number line, with each point representing a measurement.
2
When creating a line plot with fractional data, ensure each value is rounded to the nearest fractional unit, such as one-fourth of an hour or minute.
3
On a line plot, the number of dots above each tick mark indicates the frequency of that particular measurement in the data set.
