Once a day for seven days, Melanie recorded the temperature (in °F) of a stream near her home. Which box plot correctly shows Melanie's data?
As an AI language model, I cannot display images directly in the text. However, I can describe the characteristics of the correct box plot for Melanie's temperature data.
The box plot for Melanie's data should include:
- A box that represents the interquartile range (IQR) of the data, with a line in the middle indicating the median temperature.
- "Whiskers" that extend from the box to the minimum and maximum temperature values, which should be represented as individual dots or points.
- No outliers beyond the whiskers, or only a few outliers within the whiskers.
Overall, the box plot should show a clear range of temperatures with a median value in the middle and symmetric distribution on both sides of the box.
