A:
Answer:[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}\text{Stem}&|&\text{Leaf}\\ \\2&|&2,4,5,5,5,6,7\\3&|&2,2,2,3,3,3,4,5,5,7,7,7,8,9,9\\4&|&0,3,3,4,4,5,6,8,9\\5&|&1,2,2,3,4\\6&|&0,1,4\\7&|&0\end{array}[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:You are given the set of data40 45 64 52 38 35 48 27 60 44 32 32 33 25 37 26 61 37 37 51 33 53 43 46 52 24 25 32 49 39 22 35 33 39 54 43 34 70 44 25 ​First, rewrite it in ascending order:22 24 25 25 25 26 27 32 32 32 33 33 33 34 35 35 37 37 37 38 39 39 40 43 43 44 44 45 46 48 49 51 52 52 53 54 60 61 64 70   ​The first gigit of each number write into the stem column and the second digit of each number write into the leaf column. So, the stem-and-leaf display is[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}\text{Stem}&|&\text{Leaf}\\ \\2&|&2,4,5,5,5,6,7\\3&|&2,2,2,3,3,3,4,5,5,7,7,7,8,9,9\\4&|&0,3,3,4,4,5,6,8,9\\5&|&1,2,2,3,4\\6&|&0,1,4\\7&|&0\end{array}[/tex]
