Chapter 3Graphical and Numerical
Summaries of Qualitative DataUNIT OBJECTIVES
At the conclusion of this unit you should be able to: 1) Construct graphs that appropriately describe
data 2) Calculate and interpret numerical summaries
of a data set. 3) Combine numerical methods with graphical
methods to analyze a data set.
Displaying Qualitative Data
“Sometimes you can see a lot just by looking.”
Yogi Berra
Hall of Fame Catcher, NY Yankees
The three rules of data analysis won’t be difficult to remember
1. Make a picture —reveals aspects not obvious in the raw data; enables you to think clearly about the patterns and relationships that may be hiding in your data.
2. Make a picture —to show important features of and patterns in the data. You may also see things that you did not expect: the extraordinary (possibly wrong) data values or unexpected patterns
3. Make a picture —the best way to tell others about your data is with a well-chosen picture.

For each individual who died in the United States in 2001, we record what was
the cause of death. The table above is a summary of that information.
Top 10 causes of deaths in the United States 2001
Top 10 causes of death: bar graphEach category is represented by one bar. The bar’s height shows the count (or
sometimes the percentage) for that particular category.
The number of individuals who died of an accident in
2001 is approximately 100,000.

Make sure your labels match
the data.
Make sure all percents
add up to 100.
