• This chapter contains a number of graph screen shots. In each case, new data values were input in order to highlight the particular characteristics of the graph being drawn. Note that when you try to draw a similar graph, the unit uses data values that you have input using the List function. Because of this, the graphs that appears on the screen when you perform a graphing operation will probably differ somewhat from those shown in this manual.

1. Before Performing Statistical

Calculations

In the Main Menu, select the STAT icon to enter the STAT Mode and display the statistical data lists.

Use the statistical data lists to input data and to perform statistical calculations.

Use f

, c

, d

and e

to move the highlighting around the lists.

2. Statistical Calculation Examples

Once you input data, you can use it to produce a graph and check for tendencies.

You can also use a variety of different regression calculations to analyze the data.

Example To input the following two data groups and perform statistical calculations

0.5, 1.2, 2.4, 4.0, 5.2

–2.1, 0.3, 1.5, 2.0, 2.4

e

-c.bwa.dw

b.fwcwc.ew

Once data is input, you can use it for graphing and statistical calculations.

• Input values can be up to 10 digits long (9-digit mantissa and 2-digit exponent when using exponential format). Values in statistical data table cells are shown only up to six digits.

• You can use the f

, c

, d

and e

keys to move the highlighting to any cell in the lists for data input.

• You can press any function key ( 1 , 2 , 3 ) to draw a graph regardless of the current location of the highlighting in the statistical data list.

• The initial default graph type setting for all the graphs (Graph 1 through Graph 3) is scatter diagram, but you can change to one of a number of other graph types.

Plotting a Scatter Diagram

It is often difficult to spot the relationship between two sets of data (such as height and shoe size) by simply looking at the numbers. Such relationships often become clear however, when we plot the data on a graph, using one set as

x

-values and the other set as

y

-values.

uuuuu

To plot a scatter diagram

Example To plot the data we input in statistical data List 1 and List 2

1 (GPH1)

• The default setting automatically uses List 1 data as

x

-axis values and List 2 data as

y

-axis values. Each set of

x

/

y

data is a point on the scatter diagram.

• To return to the statistical data list, press Q .

Changing Graph Parameters

Use the following procedures to specify the graph draw/non-draw status, the graph type, and other general settings for each of the graphs in the graph menu (GPH1,

GPH2, GPH3).

1. Graph draw/non-draw status (SELECT)

The following procedure can be used to specify the draw (On)/non-draw (Off) status of each of the graphs in the graph menu.

2. General graph settings (SET)

This section describes how to use the general graph settings screen to make the following settings for each graph (GPH1, GPH2, GPH3).

• Graph Type

The initial default graph type setting for all the graphs is scatter graph. You can select one of a variety of other statistical graph types for each graph.

• List

The initial default statistical data is List 1 for single-variable data, and List 1 and List

2 for paired-variable data. You can specify which statistical data list you want to use for

x

-data and

y

-data.

• Frequency

Normally, each data item or data pair in the statistical data list is represented on a graph as a point. When you are working with a large number of data items however, this can cause problems because of the number of plot points on the graph. When this happens, you can specify a frequency list that contains values indicating the number of instances (the frequency) of the data items in the corresponding cells of the lists you are using for

x

-data and

y

-data. Once you do this, only one point is plotted for the multiple data items, which makes the graph easier to read.

• Mark Type

This setting lets you specify the shape of the plot points on the graph.

3. Calculating and Graphing Single-

Variable Statistical Data

Single-variable data is data with only a single variable. If you are calculating the average height of the members of a class for example, there is only one variable

(height).

Single-variable statistics include distribution and sum. The following three types of graphs are available for single-variable statistics.

Box Graph

This type of graph lets you see how a large number of data items are grouped within specific ranges. A box encloses all the data in an area from the 25th percentile to the

75th percentile, with a line drawn at the 50th percentile. Lines (called whiskers) extend from either end of the box up to the minimum and maximum of the data.

From the statistical data list, press 1 (GRPH) to display the graph menu, press

Estimated Value Calculation ( , )

After drawing a regression graph with the STAT Mode, you can use the RUN Mode to calculate estimated values for the regression graph's

x

and

y

parameters.

• Note that you cannot obtain estimated values for Med-Med graph and quadratic regression graph.

Example To perform power regression using the following data and estimate the values of and when

xi

= 40 and

yi

= 1000
