3578
4357
569
Key 13 means 13

Answer 1

The stem-and-leaf plot given below represents a set of data:

```

5 | 6 6 9

4 | 3 5 5 7

3 | 5 7 8

```

The first digit of each number forms the stem and the last digit forms the leaf. For example, the number 56 has a stem of 5 and a leaf of 6.

Based on the stem-and-leaf plot, the data set consists of the following numbers: 56, 56, 59, 43, 45, 45, 47, 33, 35, 37, and 58.

Note that the key 13 means that the stems represent the tens digit and the leaves represent the ones digit. So, for example, the stem 5 represents the numbers 50-59 and the leaf 6 represents the number 56.
