Explanation:

Given : Finish times (to the nearest hour) for 27 dogsled teams are shown below. 288 247 256 338 360 341 333 261 266 287 296 313 311 307 307 299 303 277 283 304 305 288 290 288 289 297 299.

To find : Make a dot plot for the data above regarding the finish time (number of hours) for the iditarod dog sled race?

Solution :

First we arrange the given data from lowest to highest.

{247,256,261,266,277,283,287,288,289,290,296,297,299,303,304,305,307,311,313,333,341,338,360}

Now, we plot the data points or number of times a number repeats is shown by dot.

Refer the attached figure below.

Answer 2

Attached is the dotplot of the given data. A dotplot is one of the ways we can present data using dots for the specified values. The dotplot is a good tool for small samples.
