Thank you We sneak and here's your spoke to sure

00:05

brought to you by flying squirrels Sadly most of them

00:08

can only afford to travel in coach All right It

00:11

seems that the squirrels in town are having a rough

00:13

time finding food lately Our biologist friend collected some data

00:16

and we would like to put it into a frequency

00:19

hissed a gram because we have nothing better to do

00:21

with our time The data shows that five squirrels way

00:24

zero point five pounds seven way point five to one

00:27

pounds eight way One one and a half pounds Three

00:30

way One and half Two pounds one ways to two

00:32

and a half pounds and one large oval here weighs

00:35

three point five to four pounds This distribution of data

00:38

is what in squirrel ville here on here The potential

00:42

answers Okay so what's this question asking Well like our

00:47

nut loving friends over here we're going to go out

00:49

on a limb and say it's checking to see if

00:52

we know what a frequency history graham is Well if

00:55

we were to plot the data were given we'd have

00:57

a whole bunch of squirrels over here on the left

01:00

With big bars five of them way barely more than

01:03

a feather seven can register on a bathroom scale and

01:06

eight of them actually weigh more than a sixteen ounce

01:08

bottle of soda But then we get to the upper

01:10

weight class Just three squirrels fall in the one point

01:13

five two pound range and only one each fall into

01:16

the last two remaining boxes So while there are some

01:19

who are heavier it's clear that the pudgy squirrels are

01:22

something of an outlier and when we look at our

01:25

history graham well it's obvious that our data skewed right

01:28

Aii the bars on the right are shorter than the

01:31

ones on the left so our answer is be skewed

01:34

right Yeah well we hope some of the horizontally gifted

01:37

squirrels will have a heart and share their bounty with

01:40

the skinny minis Unfortunately we fear they'd find the mere 00:01:43.647 --> [endTime] suggestion to be well totally nuts
