We can also represent the phone battery data in the Intro using a histogram. A histogram is a graph that displays data using bars of different heights. The height of each bar represents how many data points fall into that range. To make a histogram, we start by grouping the data into a frequency table. Watch the video walkthrough and answer the questions.

CALCULATE: Phone Battery Life

A college class with 25 students completes a survey about how long the battery life on their phone lasts.

Here are their responses, given in number of hours and sorted from least to greatest: 6, 6, 7, 7.5, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9.5, 10, 10, 10, 10.5, 10.5, 10.5, 11.5, 13, 13.5, 13.5, 14.5, 15, 16, 16.5, 22

null

Which value do you think is a better measure of the typical phone battery life in the class - the mean or the median? Explain your reasoning.

CREATE: Histogram Jigsaw

Data can be a great way to understand the world around us. But it can also be confusing! Histograms are one way that we can make sense of data; they make it easier to make observations and summarize trends.

In this activity, you’ll work with your group to uncover more about your focus topic using data. You’ll turn a data set into a histogram about student loans, car prices, mortgages, or credit scores.

Part I: Create Your Histogram
Your teacher will assign you to a group to work on one of the Data Sets. Create a poster that includes the following information:
A histogram of your data set
The mean and median of your data set
The bin size you chose and why
One sentence summarizing the data shown

Part II: Compare

Follow your teacher’s instructions to explore the other groups’ histograms. Then, answer the questions.

Which histogram(s) have a mean that is greater than the median? What do you notice about those histograms?

Which data set(s) have at least one outlier?

DESMOS: Polygraph: Guess the Distribution
In this activity, you’ll be paired with another student for a guessing game about histograms. Use your math vocabulary to try to find the correct histogram using the fewest guesses possible! Follow your teacher’s instructions to complete this Desmos activity.

APPLICATION: Histograms for Student Loans, Housing, and High-Cost Lenders

Level 1

Federal Student Loan Balance by Age

Let’s use histograms to analyze student loan balances for different age groups.

The histograms below show the student loan balances of borrowers under 25 and borrowers aged 35-49. Both histograms pull a representative sample of 100 borrowers using data from Federal Student Aid.

null

Summarize: How does student loan debt compare for borrowers aged 35-49 and borrowers below 25?

For each of the following statements, respond true, false, or can’t be determined. Then, write one sentence using math vocabulary and/or numbers to support your response.

For each of the following statements, respond true, false, or can’t be determined. Then, write one sentence using math vocabulary and/or numbers to support your response.
The median student debt is higher for borrowers aged 35-49 than borrowers under 25.

Level 2
Part 1: Representing and Comparing Housing Costs
Let’s use data analysis to look at the cost of housing in different states. We’re going to compare the monthly costs of renting and owning a home in Michigan and California, using a representative sample from the US Census’ 2020 American Community Survey.
