To interpret the stem-and-leaf plot where the leaf represents the tenths digit, we can extract the actual data from the plot. Here's how the information is laid out:
- The stem is the whole number part, while the leaf (to the right of the vertical bar) indicates the tenths digits.
From the plot provided:
- 14|7 represents the number 14.7
- 15|2556 represents the numbers 15.2, 15.5, 15.5, and 15.6
- 16|3 represents the number 16.3
- 17|1447 represents the numbers 17.1, 17.4, 17.4, and 17.7
- 18| There are no leaves, which means there are no numbers in the 18 range.
Putting this all together, the data from the stem-and-leaf plot is:
- 14.7
- 15.2
- 15.5
- 15.5
- 15.6
- 16.3
- 17.1
- 17.4
- 17.4
- 17.7
So the complete data set is: 14.7, 15.2, 15.5, 15.5, 15.6, 16.3, 17.1, 17.4, 17.4, 17.7.
