Step I: Find a dotplot, stemplot, time-series plot, histogram, or boxplot in a blog, newspaper, magazine, or journal article. 

• Include a link to the article. 
• Explain why you find this article interesting. (Minimum of 150 words).

  • Explain why you find this article interesting. (Minimum of 150 words).

Step II: Take a screenshot of the diagram you are referring to and Embed the image in this post. For each variable the diagram illustrates, state its definition including units AND whether the variable is discrete or continuous. 

Step III: What is the point of the article? Does the diagram support that point. Explain. (Minimum of 150 words).

Step IV: Could one or more of the other diagrams (dotplot, stemplot, time-series plot, histogram, or boxplot) have been used instead? If so, identify which ones and determine which of all the diagrams would best support the point of the article. If not, why do you think the author picked that specific diagram? Explain. (Minimum of 150 words).

Step V: If the diagram you chose is a dotplot, stemplot, or histogram, describe the shape, center, spread, and any outliers of the distribution. If the diagram is a time-series plot, what happens to one variable as the other variable increases? If the diagram is a boxplot, determine the first quartile, second quartile, third quartile, and IQR.
