Q. A data set has a median of 25 and an interquartile range of 6 . A box-and-whisker plot is created to represent the data set. Which box-and-whisker plot could represent the data seA.B.C.D.
Identify Median and IQR: Identify the median and interquartile range (IQR) from the question.Median = 25, IQR = 6.
Calculate Q1 and Q3: Calculate the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3) using the median and IQR.Q1=Median−(IQR/2), Q3=Median+(IQR/2).Q1=25−(6/2), Q3=25+(6/2).
Perform Calculations for Q1 and Q3: Perform the calculations for Q1 and Q3. Q1=25−3, Q3=25+3. Q1=22, Q3=28.
Check Box-and-Whisker Plots: Check the box-and-whisker plots A, B, C, and D to see which one has a median of 25 and quartiles at 22 and 28.
