D. The hottest day in December was 75 degrees.

Answer 1

Answer:

B. About 50% of the days in January had average temperatures between 66 and 75 degrees.

The box ranges from 66 to 75... meaning that most of the days were in those temperatures.

The lines mean that there were only a few days that were in those temperatures.

You're welcome if I'm correct.

Answer 2

The correct answer is about 50% of the days in January had average temperatures between 66 and 75 degrees.

What is the box and whisker plot?

A Box and Whisker Plot (also known as a Box Plot) is a visual representation of data distribution through quartiles.

• The maximum and minimum value of the function is plotted at the ends of a box and whisker plot.
• The box in the middle displays the interquartile range, which means that about 50% of values when the data is arranged in ascending or descending order.

In the graph given in the question we can clearly see that the interquartile range of the data is lying between the temperatures 66° to 75°, which means that 50% of days in January had the temperature between 66 to 75 degrees.

Hence, Option(c) is correct for the given question.
