Question

The dot plot represents a sampling of ACT scores: dot plot titled ACT Scores with Score on the x axis and Number of Students on the y axis with 1 dot over 24, 3 dots over 26, 3 dots over 27, 5 dots over 28, 3 dots over 30, 3 dots over 32, 1 dot over 35 Which box plot represents the dot plot data? box plot titled ACT Score with a minimum of 24, quartile 1 of 25, median of 26, quartile 3 of 29, and maximum of 35 box plot titled ACT Score with a minimum of 23, quartile 1 of 25, median of 26, quartile 3 of 29, and maximum of 36 box plot titled ACT Score with a minimum of 23, quartile 1 of 27, median of 30, quartile 3 of 34, and maximum of 36 box plot titled ACT Score with a minimum of 24, quartile 1 of 27, median of 28, quartile 3 of 30, and maximum of 35

Answer 1

box plot titled ACT Score with a minimum of 24, quartile 1 of 27, median of 28, quartile 3 of 30, and maximum of 35

Explanation:

The scores of the students represented on the dot plot are:

1 dot => 24

3 dots => 26, 26, 26

3 dots => 27, 27, 27

5 dots => 28, 28, 28, 28, 28

3 dots => 30, 30, 30

3 dots => 32, 32, 32

1 dot => 35

Quickly, we can ascertain 3 values from these data points of which we can use to find out which box plot represents the dot plot data.

The minimum score = 24

The maximum score = 35

The median score is the 10th value, which is the middle value of the data point = 28

Therefore, we can conclude that: "box plot titled ACT Score with a minimum of 24, quartile 1 of 27, median of 28, quartile 3 of 30, and maximum of 35".
