Median: 102, Q1: 87, Q3: 113, IR: 28, outliers: none B. Median: 102, Q1: 87, Q3: 115, IR: 28, outliers: 68 C. Median: 102, Q1: 87, Q2: 115, IR: 28, outliers: none D. Median: 102, Q1: 87, Q3: 115, IR: 27, outliers: none

Answer 1

Q1 = 87 ;

Q2 = 102 ;

Q3 = 115 ;

IQR = 28

OUTLIER = None

Explanation:

Given the data:

111, 68, 93, 88, 74, 152, 119, 87, 88, 105, 84, 102, 151, 115, 112

Ordered data : 68, 74, 84, 87, 88, 88, 93, 102, 105, 111, 112, 115, 119, 151, 152

Sample size, n = 15

The first quartile, Q1 = 1/4(n+1)th term

Q1 = 1/4(15+1)th term

Q1 = 1/4(16) = 4th term

Q1 = 87

The Median , Q2 = 1/2(n+1)th term

Q2 = 1/2(15+1)th term

Q2 = 1/2(16) = 8th term

Q2 = 102

The third quartile, Q3 = 3/4(n+1)th term

Q3 = 1/4(15+1)th term

Q3 = 3/4(16) = 12th term

Q3 = 115

The interquartile range, IQR = Q3 - Q1

IQR = (115 - 87) = 28

Q1 = 87 ;

Q2 = 102 ;

Q3 = 115 ;

IQR = 28

OUTLIER = None
