Students in Ms. Valendra’s science class planted 13 in different places around the school yard. After one month, they measured the heights of the conifers. They rounded each measurement to the nearest 1/4

Answer :

Considering the dot plot, it is found that the tallest conifer is 3.25 inches taller than the shortest conifer.

What does a dot plot shows?

It shows, with dots, the number of times that each of the measures appears in a data-set.

Researching this problem on the internet, and finding the dot plot, we have that:

  • The shortest conifer measures 6 and 1/4 = 6.25 inches.
  • The tallest conifer measures 9.5 inches.

The difference is:

9.5 - 6.25 = 3.25 inches.

Hence the tallest conifer is 3.25 inches taller than the shortest conifer.
