The stem-and-leaf plot in the image shows the data, where the stems represent the tens digits, and the leaves represent the ones digits. Let's break down the plot to extract the numbers:

• Stem 2: Leaves 6, 8, 9 → 26, 28, 29
• Stem 3: Leaves 1, 1 → 31, 31
• Stem 4: Leaves 2, 3, 3, 5 → 42, 43, 43, 45
• Stem 6: Leaves 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 8 → 64, 65, 65, 65, 66, 67, 68
• Stem 7: Leaves 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 9 → 72, 72, 72, 72, 73, 73, 74, 79
• Stem 8: Leaves 0, 1, 7, 7, 8 → 80, 81, 87, 87, 88
• Stem 9: Leaves 6, 6 → 96, 96

Now we will list the numbers in order: $26, 28, 29, 31, 31, 42, 43, 43, 45, 64, 65, 65, 65, 66, 67, 68, 72, 72, 72, 72, 73, 73, 74, 79, 80, 81, 87, 87, 88, 96, 96$

Median:

The total number of values is 31, which is odd. The median is the middle number, which is the 16th value in the ordered list.

$\text{Median} = 66$

Range:

The range is the difference between the highest and lowest numbers.

$\text{Range} = 96 - 26 = 70$

Thus:

• Median = 66
• Range = 70

3. What are the advantages of using a stem-and-leaf plot over a histogram?
4. How would you find the interquartile range (IQR) from the given data?

Tip: In stem-and-leaf plots, always check for duplicate values when calculating the median or any other statistical measure.
