Which box-and-whisker plot matches the data?
34, 46, 28, 47, 39, 52, 29, 54, 41, 29, 31, 49
A. A box-and-whisker plot is shown above a number line that is marked in increments of 1 from 25 to 60.The box extends from 30 to 48 with a division and a point at 40. The left whisker extends from 28 to 30, and the right whisker extends from 48 to 54.
B. A box-and-whisker plot is shown above a number line that is marked in increments of 1 from 25 to 60.The box extends from 30 to 49 with a division and a point at 40. The left whisker extends from 27 to 30, and the right whisker extends from 49 to 55.
C. A box-and-whisker plot is shown above a number line that is marked in increments of 1 from 25 to 60.The box extends from 29 to 48 with a division and a point at 38. The left whisker extends from 27 to 30, and the right whisker extends from 48 to 54.
D. A box-and-whisker plot is shown above a number line that is marked in increments of 1 from 25 to 60.
To determine which box and whisker plot matches the given data, we need to understand how to create a box and whisker plot.
A box and whisker plot is a visual representation of a dataset that displays the minimum, first quartile (Q1), median (Q2), third quartile (Q3), and maximum values. It helps us understand the distribution and spread of the data.
Here is a step-by-step process to create a box and whisker plot:
1. Sort the data in ascending order: 28, 29, 29, 31, 34, 39, 41, 46, 47, 49, 52, 54.
2. Determine the minimum value: 28.
3. Determine the maximum value: 54.
4. Find the median (Q2) or the second quartile. Since the dataset has 12 values, the median is the average of the 6th and 7th values: (34 + 39) / 2 = 36.5.
5. Find the first quartile (Q1), which is the median of the lower half of the dataset. The lower half of the dataset is {28, 29, 29, 31, 34, 36.5}. Since the lower half has an even number of values, the first quartile is the average of the 3rd and 4th values: (29 + 31) / 2 = 30.
6. Find the third quartile (Q3), which is the median of the upper half of the dataset. The upper half of the dataset is {39, 41, 46, 47, 49, 52, 54}. Again, the upper half has an even number of values, so the third quartile is the average of the 3rd and 4th values: (46 + 47) / 2 = 46.5.
7. Create the box and whisker plot using the determined values. The plot will have a horizontal number line called the axis. Here is how you can represent the values:
- Draw a line segment and label it with the minimum value (28) on the left side of the axis.
- Draw a horizontal line from the minimum value to the first quartile (30).
- Draw a box from the first quartile to the third quartile (30 to 46.5).
- In the box, draw a vertical line at the median (36.5) to represent the median line.
- Draw a horizontal line from the third quartile (46.5) to the maximum value (54).
- Draw a line segment and label it with the maximum value (54) on the right side of the axis.
Now that we know how to create a box and whisker plot, we can compare it with the options provided. Please provide the box and whisker plots you have to match with the data.
