Math Problem Statement

What is the median (Q2) for the box and whisker plot is between what two consecutive numbers?

Solution

The median (Q2) of a box and whisker plot is represented by the line inside the box.

From the image you provided:

  • The box stretches from about 16 to 22.
  • The median (Q2) is shown by the line within the box, which appears to be between 18 and 20.

Thus, the median (Q2) is between the two consecutive numbers 18 and 20.

  3. What does it indicate if the median is closer to the lower or upper quartile?
  4. How are outliers represented in a box and whisker plot?
  5. What can you infer about the data distribution from the length of the whiskers?

Tip: Box and whisker plots are particularly useful for visualizing the spread and skewness of data, making them ideal for identifying outliers.
