Question
Answer
set   any collection of objects  
🗑
empty set   a set with no objects in it  
🗑
Venn diagram   a diagram that uses geometric shapes to show how sets are related  
🗑
meter (m)   a metric unit for measuring length equivalent to 100 centimeters  
🗑
centimeter (cm)   a metric unit for measuring length, equivalent to one hundredth of a meter  
🗑
millimeter (mm)   a standard metric unit for measuring length. 10 of these is equivalent to one centimeter, 1000 of them equal a meter  
🗑
benchmark   an item whose measure you know that can be used to estimate lengths. For example, you could use your height to estimate the height of a doorway  
🗑
gram   a standard metric unit for measuring mass (weight)  
🗑
milligram (mg)   a metric unit for measuring mass (weight) 1,000 of them equal one gram  
🗑
kilogram (kg)   a metric unit for measuring mass (weight) the equivalent of 1,000 grams  
🗑
metric ton   metric mass unit of mass equivalent to 1,000 kg  
🗑
sample   part of a whole set of objects being studied  
🗑
population   a whole set of objects being studied  
🗑
percent   “per hundred” or “out of 100”  
🗑
bar graph   a graph used to compare data by comparing the lengths of bars  
🗑
range   the difference between the greatest and the least values of a set of numerical data  
🗑
line plot   a plot displaying data above the appropriate points along a scale. The scale must include the greatest and least values of the data  
🗑
average   a single number used to describe what is typical of a set of data  
🗑
mean   the sum of a set of numerical data divided by the number of data items  
🗑
median   the middle data item in a set of data in numerical order. If there is no single middle item, the number halfway between the two data items closest to the middle  
🗑
mode   the data item or items that occur most often in a set of data  
🗑
front-end estimation   a method of estimation that focuses on the left-most digits, since they have the greatest value  
🗑
trading off   a method that involves taking away from one number and adding the same amount to another number, to have numbers that are easier to add using mental math  
🗑
stem-and-leaf plot   a display of data where each number is represented by a stem (the leftmost digits) and a leaf (the rightmost digits)  
🗑
