The box plot represents the number of math problems on the quizzes for an algebra course. A number line goes from 0 to 16. The whiskers range from 5 to 15, and the box ranges from 8 to 14. A line divides the box at 10. What is the range of the data? 6 7 9 10.

Respuesta :

Box plot stores 5 important data description of the considered data set. The range of the data represented by given box plot is 10 (option D)

How does a box plot shows the  data points?

A box plot has 5 data description.

  • The leftmost whisker shows the minimum value in the data.
  • The rightmost whisker shows the maximum value in the data.
  • The leftmost line in the box shows the first quartile.
  • The middle line shows the median, also called second quartile.
  • The last line of the box shows the third quartile.

The range of values of a data set is:

Range = Maximum value of the data set - Minimum value of the data set

For the given case, we get:

Whiskers ranging from 5 to 15 means minimum value = 5, and maximum value = 15

The Box ranges from 8 to 14, denoting that first quartile = 8, and third quartile = 14

The line dividing the box is at 10 = median of the data set.


Thus, we get the range of the data set = max. - min. value = 15-5 = 10

Thus, the range of the data represented by given box plot is 10 (option D)
