A dot plot labeled “Income per Person (in 2011, international dollars),” with the x-axis labeled in increments of 10000. The graph is significantly skewed to the left. Albania is marked at approximately 12000, the USA is marked at approximately 56000, Singapore is marked at approximately 91000, and Qatar is marked at approximately 113000.

Figurines of golfers on tall stacks of coins next to shorter stacks of coins with figurines of construction workers on them. A scatterplot titled “Life Expectancy & Nations’ Incomes.” It is labeled “Income Per Person (international, 2011 dollars)” on the x-axis and “Life Expectancy” on the y-axis. There is a line whose slope is given as “Regression Line: y =68.5 + 0.000245x.” A residual plot labeled “Income Per Person (international, 2011 dollars)” on the x-axis and “Residual” on the y-axis. There is a horizontal line at y = 0. There are more points for lower x-values and both lower x-values and higher x-values are more likely to be below the horizontal line. A dot plot titled “Square Root of Incomes per Person.” There are more dots on the left than on the right, although it is less skewed than the data was in the previous dot pot. A dot plot titled “Log base ten of Nations’ Incomes.” The dots are spread relatively evenly across the dot plot. A scatterplot titled “Life Expectancy & Nations’ Incomes.” It is labeled “Base-10 Logarithm of Income Per Person“ on the x-axis and “Life Expectancy” on the y-axis. There is a line whose slope is given as “Regression Line: y = 27.7 + 11.3x.” A residual plot labeled “Base-10 Logarithm of Income Per Person” on the x-axis and “Residual” on the y-axis. There is a horizontal line at y = 0. There does not appear to be a pattern to the points. A histogram labeled “High School GPAs of 1000 Students” on the x-axis and “Count” on the y-axis. For 1.8-2, the count is approximately 5. For 2-2.2, the count is approximately 25. For 2.2-2.4, the count is approximately 45. For 2.4-2.6, the count is approximately 75. For 2.6-2.8, the count is approximately 100. For 2.8-3, the count is approximately 90. For 3-3.2, the count is approximately 135. For 3.2-3.4, the count is approximately 115. For 3.4-3.6, the count is approximately 130. For 3.6-3.8, the count is approximately 110. For 3.8-4, the count is approximately 55. For 4-4.2, the count is approximately 120. For 4.4-4.6, the count is approximately 5. A histogram labeled “Squared High School GPAs of 1000 Students” on the x-axis and “Count” on the y-axis. For 2-4, the count is approximately 5. For 4-6, the count is approximately 80. For 6-8, the count is approximately 220. For 8-10, the count is approximately 170. For 10-12, the count is approximately 150. For 12-14, the count is approximately 160. For 14-16, the count is approximately 100. For 16-18, the count is approximately 120. For 20-22, the count is approximately 5. A histogram labeled “Cubed High School GPAs of 1000 Students” on the x-axis and “Count” on the y-axis. For 0-9, the count is approximately 20. For 9-18, the count is approximately 150. For 18-27, the count is approximately 170. For 27-36, the count is approximately 250. For 36-45, the count is approximately 140. For 45-54, the count is approximately 120. For 54-63, the count is approximately 60. For 63-72, the count is approximately 125. For 90-99, the count is approximately 5. A dotplot labeled “Percent of Seats Held by Women in Legislature” and numbered from 0 to 60. There are more points on the left side than the right. Japan is labeled at approximately 10, USA is labeled at approximately 19, Germany is labeled at approximately 31, Mexico is labeled at approximately 48, and Rwanda is labeled at approximately 62. A dotplot labeled “Percent of Seats Held by Women in Legislature” and numbered from 0 to 7. There are slightly more points on the left side. The desmos graphing calculator interface.
