Answer to Problem 17STP

Option (D)

An outlier of the data is 29 games

Explanation of Solution

Given:The table shows the total number of wins by the team that won the women’s NCAA basketball tournament for the past 15 years.

  Pre-Algebra Student Edition, Chapter 13.3, Problem 17STP

Which of the following statement is not supported by the data

(A) Less than half of the teams won more than 34 games and half won less than 34 games.

(B) The range of the data is 10 games.

(C) About one fourth of the team won 32 fewer games.

(D) An outlier of the data is 29 games.

Finding range Highest age = 39

Lowest age = 29

Then

Range = highest age − lowest age

  =3929=10

The range is 10 .

Finding Upper quartile and lower quartile of rose bowl

Arranging the data in the ascending order

  29,31,31,32,33,33,34,34,34,34,35,36,37,39,39

Median

  29,31,31,32,33,33,34,34_,34,34,35,36,37,39,39=34

Upper quartile

  29,31,31,32,33,33,34,34,34,34,35,36_,37,39,39=36

Lower quartile

  29,31,31,32,_33,33,34,34,34,34,35,36,37,39,39=32

For finding interquartile range

Interquartile range = Upper quartile − lower quartile

  =3632=4

Now,

Multiply the interquartile range by 1.5

We get

  =4×1.5=6

Now subtract 6 from the lower quartile and add 6 to the upper quartile

I.e.

  326=2636+6=42

There is no outlier in the data.

Hence, Option (D) is incorrect

There is no outlier in the data.
