Based on the box plot, the correct conclusions for the data include;

a. Harvard has a smaller IQR when compared with Cornell.

b. should choose Harvard because they earn more than Cornell.

d. a higher percent from Cornell earn more.

e. harvard has the higher range.

In Mathematics and Statistics, the interquartile range (IQR) of a data set is the difference between third quartile (
Q_3) and the first quartile (
Q_1):

Interquartile range (IQR) of data set = third quartile - first quartile

Interquartile range (IQR) for Harvard = 50 - 40

Interquartile range (IQR) for Harvard = 10

Interquartile range (IQR) for Cornell = 70 - 50

Interquartile range (IQR) for Cornell = 20

Based on the box plot, the maximum values for both schools are as follows;

Maximum value for Harvard = 85.

Maximum value for Cornell = 75.

Since the median (50% of the population) for Cornell is 58, it implies that a higher percentage from Cornell earn more.

Mathematically, the range of a data set can be calculated by using this formula;

Range = Maximum value - Minimum value

Range for Harvard = 85 - 35

Range for Harvard = 50.

Range for Cornell = 75 - 45

Range for Cornell = 30.

Missing information;

Conclude the data below:

(Harvard is the top one)

(Cornell is the lowest one)

Select all that apply.

a. Harvard has a smaller IQR when compared with Cornell.

b. should choose Harvard because they earn more than Cornell.

c. should choose Cornell because it’s higher.

d. a higher percent from Cornell earn more.

e. harvard has the higher range.
