Identify the sample space for single-stage events; assign probabilities to the outcomes of these events and predict relative frequencies for related events
AC9M7ST02
Create different types of numerical data displays including stem-and-leaf plots using software where appropriate; describe and compare the distribution of data, commenting on the shape, centre and spread including outliers and determining the range, median, mean and mode |
