Answer:
a. median is 8
b. first quartile is 7
c. third quartile is 9.5
d. below
e. below
Step-by-step explanation:
7, 10, 10, 6, 7, 8, 8, 7, 9.
Place number in order least to greatest
6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10, 10
a. What is the median?
The median is the middle number in a data set
number of terms in data set (n) + 1 / 2 =
9 + 1 / 2 = 10 / 2
6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10, 10
The median is 8
b. What is the first quartile?
Q1 is the central point between the smallest score and the median
6, 7, 7, 7
since there is even number of data points you find the average,
7 + 7 / 2 = 14 / 2 = 7
c. What is the third quartile?
Q3 is the central point between the median and the largest score
8, 9, 10, 10
since there is even number of data points you find the average,
9 + 10 / 2 = 19 / 2 = 9.5
d. Draw a box plot of the data.
below
e. Write two conclusions about the data shown in the box plot.
There are no outliers with a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 10. The Interquartile Range is 2.5 (9.5 - 7)
