Question

The cost of taking your pet aboard the air flight with you in the continental US varies according to the airlines. The five number summary for prices based on a sample of major US airlines was:

Min = 60, Q1 = 100, Median = 110, Q3 = 125, Max = 150

If we were to build the box plot for this data, the box would stretch between which two values?

What would be the lowest value: --and highest value: -

Answer 1

Answer: The lowest value: 100 and highest value: - 150 .

If we were to build the box plot for this data, the box would stretch between
`Q_1= 100` and
`Q_3= 125`.

Explanation:

We know that the box-plot is the graphical way to represent the five -number summary (Minimum value , First quartile
`(Q_1)` , Median , Third Quartile
`(Q_3)` , Maximum value).

Where , the box streches between the first quartile
`(Q_1)` and the third quartile
`(Q_3)` .

Given : The cost of taking your pet aboard the air flight with you in the continental US varies according to the airlines.

The five number summary for prices based on a sample of major US airlines was:

Min = 60,

`Q_1= 100`

Median = 110

`Q_3= 125`

Max = 150

If we were to build the box plot for this data, the box would stretch between
`Q_1= 100` and
`Q_3= 125`.

Hence, the lowest value: 100 and highest value: 125 .
