Three sets of data about ten sixth-grade students were used to make three dot plots. The person who made these dot plots forgot to label them. Match each dot plot with the appropriate label.

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Dot Plot B		Numbers of hours of sleep on nights before non-school days
Dot Plot C		Numbers of hours of sleep on nights before school days
Dot Plot A		Ages in years

Twenty-five students were asked to rate—on a scale of 0 to 10—how important it is to reduce pollution. A rating of 0 means “not at all important” and a rating of 10 means “very important.” Here is a dot plot of their responses.
Explain why a rating of 6 is not a good description of the center of this data set.

If c is the number of pounds of cherries that Tyler can buy, write one or more inequalities or equations describing c.

Can 2 be a value of c? Can 3 be a value of c? What about -1? Explain your reasoning.

If m is the amount of money, in dollars, Tyler can spend, write one or more inequalities or equations describing m.

Can 8 be a value of m? Can 2 be a value of m? What about 10.5? Explain your reasoning.
