Unfortunately, as an AI language model, I am unable to view or analyze images or graphs. Therefore, I cannot accurately determine which box plot represents Jeremy's scores. However, based on the information provided, the box plot should have a longer left whisker and a shorter right whisker, indicating a left skew. Additionally, the interquartile range (IQR) should be 6 units less than the range.
To create a box plot accurately representing Jeremy's scores, we need to consider the following information:
1. The graph is skewed left: This means that the tail of the distribution will be longer on the left side.
2. The IQR is 6 less than the range: The Interquartile Range (IQR) is the difference between the upper quartile (Q3) and the lower quartile (Q1), while the range is the difference between the maximum and minimum values.
Based on this information, the box plot that accurately represents Jeremy's scores would have the following characteristics:
- The box will be shifted towards the lower values, indicating the left skewness.
- The IQR will be 6 less than the range, implying a smaller spread between the middle 50% of the data compared to the entire range.
Therefore, the correct box plot will have a box shifted towards the left side and a comparatively smaller spread in the middle 50% of the data compared to the entire range.
