Maths Coursework-Handling Data Aim: The aim of this coursework is to identify patterns that emerge from groups of data. In this work I shall be looking at grouped data in girls and boys heights and weights. Firstly I will collect 8% of the data and use that as my sample. This is 95 people in my sample. So, on my calculator I typed in 'Shift' 'RAN#' 'x' '1183' = 'a random number between 1and1183'. I'll do this 95 times and highlight the people on my sheet of which if their number came up on my calculator. I then plotted graphs of my sample by: * Year group height and weight (separate graphs) * Males and females Here is my sample: No. Year Group Surname Forename 1 Years Gender Height (m) Weight (kg) 149 8 Campbell Julia 13 Female 1.41 30 594 9 O'Neill Krisila 14 Female 1.54 36 591 9 O'Donald Louise 15 Female 1.55 36 423 9 Jones Brian 14 Male 1.32 38 254 7 Earnshaw Kayleigh 12 Female 1.48 40 513 9 Marsh Sarah-Louise 14 Female 1.51 40 29 7 Anderson Lisa 12 Female 1.52 40 70 9 Bellfield Janet 14 Female 1.58 40 573 9 Munir Asam 14 Male 1.63 40 30 7 Anderson Kylie 12 Female 1.42 41 430 9 Kalidas Jessica 14 Female 1.62 41 729 7 Talbert Ieisha 12 Female 1.54 42 308 9 Hall Stephanie 14 Female 1.6 42 972 11 Heap Louise 16 Female 1.80 42 233 7 Dickinson Ben 12 Male 1.49 43 107 7 Boyoh Jake 12 Male 1.54 43 49 7 Austin Steven 12 Male 1.54 43 365 7 Holt Oliver 12 Male 1.61 43 396 8 Janeadoni Natalie 13 Female 1.70 43 90 8 Bolton Megan 13 Female 1.72 43 485 7 Lloyd Angela 12 Female 1.47 44 153 7 Carney Esther 12 Female 1.50 44 152 8 Canan Esther 13 Female 1.60 44 798 9 Wilson David 14 Male 1.71 44 210 8 Cullin Adam 14 Male 1.52 45 460 7 Knight Jane 12 Female 1.57 45 1011 11 Kelly Freda 16 Female 1.60 45 400 9 Javi Ursula 14 Female 1.65 45 815 10 Aberdeen Richard 15 Male 1.75 45 1172 10 Ullah Lisa 15 Female 1.79 45 85 8 Blackburn Suzanne 13 Female 1.60 46 128 9 Burn Suzanne 14 Female 1.6 46 522 8 Matthews David 13 Male 1.32 47 501 7 Madden Ben 12 Male 1.47 47 442 7 Kennedy Matthew 12 Male 1.48 47 622 7 Platt Sarah 12 Female 1.50 47 613 7 Patel Sean 12 Male 1.52 47 223 8 Dawud Azhar 13 Male 1.55 47 213 9 Dakir Azhar 14 Male 1.55 47 764 8 Vector Armin 13 Male 1.73 47 389 9 Jackson James 14 Male 1.60 48 1018 11 Khan Adila 16 Female 1.63 48 406 9 Johnson Emma 14 Female 1.54 50 68 9 Bean Stanley 14 Male 1.55 50 948 10 Glintode Billy 15 Male 1.55 50 850 11 Biddle Vicky 16 Female 1.56 50 319 9 Handergon Ben 14 Male 1.58 50 348 9 Henman Tony 14 Male 1.70 50 668 9 Seedat Schel 14 Male 1.70 50 448 9 Key Ben 14 Male 1.58 51 595 7 Ormsby Rebecca 12 Female 1.42 52 15 8 Alderson Matthew 13 Male 1.52 52 23 9 Alsderson Matthew 14 Male 1.52 52 242 7 Dodman Emma 12 Female 1.53 52 214 8 Dave Davina 13 Female 1.55 52 220 9 Davies Davina 14 Female 1.55 52 468 8 Latimer Jade 13 Female 1.57 52 469 9 Latimer Hjade 14 Female 1.57 52 372 9 Hughes Charelle 14 Female 1.61 52 909 10 Daniels Charelle 15 Female 1.76 52 250 7 Dugan Maggie 12 Female 1.49 53 291 8 Green Claire 13 Female 1.62 53 445 7 Kent Emma 12 Female 1.72 53 1129 10 Skully Felicity 15 Female 1.60 54 40 9 Armarnio Vintchenzo 14 Male 1.67 54 179 9 Clough Samantha 14 Female 1.71 54 898 10 Collins louise 14 Female 1.71 54 975 10 Hoey Simon 16 Male 1.72 54 357 9 Hobble Joseph 14 Male 1.80 54 168 9 Cayby Laura 14 Female 1.02 55 218 7 Davies Jamie 12 Male 1.57 55 177 9 Cireen Claire 14 Female 1.62 55 829 10 Ashiq Azra 15 Female 1.60 56 489 7 Lloyd Mark 12 Male 1.61 56 823 11 Ali Amera 15 Female 1.62 56 285 8 Gore Mike 13 Male 1.63 56 55 8 Banken Lilly 13 Female 1.68 56 747 9 Thorpe Belinda 14 Female 1.53 58 280 8 Glare Benjamin 13 Male 1.65 59 529 9 McAther Dougie 14 Male 2.03 60 663 9 Saturn Perry 14 Male 1.72 62 1007 10 Kaura Kaz 15 Male 1.66 63 1088 10 Pearce Robert 15 Male 1.80 63 718 8 Stanton Rebecca 13 Female 1.59 64 1087 11 Paul Niel 16 Male 1.72 64 928 10 Eden Laura 15 Female 1.53 65 683 9 Sim Emily 14 Female 1.55 65 301 9 Gunet Armede 14 Male 1.60 68 1043 11 Major William 16 Male 1.8 68 1067 10 Molloy Jodie 15 Female 1.52 70 631 8 Rashid Azrah 13 Female 1.58 72 52 8 Bailey Mellisa 13 Female 1.75 72 664 9 Savage Louise 14 Female 1.06 74 966 10 Hardy Jeff 15 Male 1.79 75 1014 11 Kent Philip 16 Male 1.86 80 842 11 Bentley James 16 Male 1.91 82 I will now show this sample using scatter graphs.
