1. **State the problem:** We are given a list of times in minutes: 8, 7, 20, 24, 10, 15, 14, 10, 8, 16, 12, 24, 29. 2. **What is a stem-and-leaf diagram?** It is a way to organize data to show its distribution. The "stem" is the leading digit(s), and the "leaf" is the last digit. 3. **Step 1: Sort the data in ascending order:** 7, 8, 8, 10, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 20, 24, 24, 29 4. **Step 2: Identify stems and leaves:** - Stems are the tens digits: 0, 1, 2 - Leaves are the units digits corresponding to each stem 5. **Step 3: Group leaves by stems:** - Stem 0: 7, 8, 8 - Stem 1: 0, 0, 2, 4, 5, 6 - Stem 2: 0, 4, 4, 9 6. **Step 4: Write the stem-and-leaf diagram:** $$ \begin{array}{r|l} \text{Stem} & \text{Leaves} \\ 0 & 7\ 8\ 8 \\ 1 & 0\ 0\ 2\ 4\ 5\ 6 \\ 2 & 0\ 4\ 4\ 9 \end{array} $$ This diagram shows the distribution of times clearly, with each leaf representing a unit digit of a time value.
