Question

The five values for a data set are: minimum=11 Lower quartile=12 Median=23.5 Upper quartile=27 Maximum=33 Where will the different sections of the box plot be located?

Answer 1

The answer is "Please find the given plot which is shown in the figure".

Explanation:

`Minimum = 11\\\\Lower \ quartile = Q_1 = 12\\\\Median = Q_2 = 23.5\\\\Upper \ quartile = Q_3 = 27\\`

Boxes are between 12 and 27
`\to Q_1 \ \ to \ \ Q_3`

The box divides a line at 23.5
`\to Q2`

The left whisker would be 11-12
`\to Minimum \ \ to\ Q_1`

The proper whisker will be 27 to 33
`\to Q_2 \ \ to \ \ Maximum`
