Step-by-step explanation:

Summary statistic such as lower quartile, median and upper quartile statistics including outliers can be deduced easily from the boxplot.

B.)

Bimodal distribution occurs when two different groups or class have the highest number of values in a distribution.

C.)

The distribution of marathon times for men is fairly normally distributed while that if women is skewed.

The minimum and maximum values in the women's distribution is greater than the minimum and maximum values in the men's distribution.

The women's distribution has greater variance than the men's distribution. (greater range value).
