Concept explainers
To construct: the box plot on basis of given data and describe the distribution.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
3 0 12 10 8 4 2 7 10 11 6 7 0 35 12 3 10 2 7 9 15 5 14 15 6
Formula used:
Calculation:
Order the numbers in ascending order
0 0 2 2 3 3 4 5 6 6 7 7 7 8 9 10 10 10 11 12 12 14 15 15 35
For outliers
Graph:
By seeing the stem plot centre is at 7 and 1st quartile and 3rd quartile are 3.5 and 11.5 respectively. Inter quartile range is 8 and the minimum and maximum values are 0 and 35 respectively so the spread of the data is between 0 and 35 and the mode which is 10 because of highest frequency of the number. There is one outlier and distribution is positive skewed or right skewed which looking forth.
