Solution
I can help you with the problem shown in the image. Let's go step by step:
Given Data
The data set provided is:
Part (a) - Finding and
- is the lower quartile, which is the median of the lower half of the data.
- is the upper quartile, which is the median of the upper half of the data.
To calculate these:
- First, arrange the data in ascending order (

Formulas
Q1 = lower quartile = median of the lower half of the data
Q3 = upper quartile = median of the upper half of the data
IQR = Q3 - Q1
Lower Bound = Q1 - 1.5 * IQR
Upper Bound = Q3 + 1.5 * IQR
