Interpret the data in this box plot. What is the maximum value of the dataset?
(1 point)
A box plot is a graphical representation of the data that shows the distribution of a dataset using quartiles. The box plot consists of a box (which represents the interquartile range), whiskers (which represent the range of the data), and individual data points (outliers).
To determine the maximum value of the dataset, we look at the right whisker of the box plot. The maximum value is at the end of the right whisker, which is the highest value in the dataset.
Therefore, the maximum value of the dataset can be found by looking at the right whisker of the box plot.
Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a number line ranging from 23 to 34 in one unit increments. Each number is labeled and represented with a tick mark. A box plot is placed above the number line. The box is divided into two sections.
The first section of the box plot extends from 26 to 27.5. The second section of the box plot extends from 27.5 to 30. A line starts at the left side of the first section of the box plot and extends from 26 to 23, where it ends with a short vertical line. Another line starts at the right side of the second section of the box plot and extends from 30 to 34, where it ends with a short vertical line.

The maximum value in the dataset is 34. This can be determined by following the right whisker of the box plot until it reaches the end, which corresponds to the maximum value in the dataset. In this case, the right whisker of the box plot extends from 30 to 34, indicating that 34 is the maximum value.

An illustration shows a number line ranging from 8 to 15 in one unit increments. Each number is labeled and represented with a tick mark. A box plot is placed above the number line. The box is divided into two sections.
The first section of the box plot extends from 9 to 10.5. The second section of the box plot extends from 10.5 to 14. A line starts at the left side of the first section of the box plot and extends from 9 to 8, where it ends with a short vertical line. Another line starts at the right side of the second section of the box plot and extends from 14 to 15, where it ends with a short vertical line.

The correct statement is: The median of the dataset is 10.5, and the range is 7.
This can be deduced from the box plot where the median is represented by the line within the box dividing it into two equal parts, which in this case is at 10.5. The range of the dataset is calculated as the difference between the maximum value (15) and the minimum value (8), which results in 7.

An illustration shows a number line ranging from 64 to 80 in increments of 1. A boxplot is placed above the number line. The box is divided into two sections. The first box extends from 67 to 72. The second box extends from 72 to 77. A line extends from 64 to the left side of the first box. Another line extends from the right side of the second box to 80.
What are the minimum and median values of the box plot (in that order)?

The correct values for the minimum and median in the box plot are 67 and 72, respectively.
The minimum value can be found at the start of the left whisker which in this case is 67. The median value, which is the line inside the box dividing it into two equal parts, is 72.

An illustration shows a number line ranging from 71 to 78 in increments of 1. A boxplot is placed above the number line. The box is divided into two sections. The first box extends from 72.5 to 74 and the second box extends from 74 to 76.5. A line extends from 71 to the left side of the first box. Another line extends from the right side of the second box to 78.
The dataset for this box plot is 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78. What is the error on the box plot?

The error on the box plot is that it displays the wrong median and upper quartile.
Based on the given dataset 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, the correct median should be the middle value when the data is ordered from least to greatest, which in this case is 74. However, the box plot incorrectly shows the median to be 72.5 to 74, skipping 73 which is part of the dataset. Additionally, the upper quartile should be 75.5 but the box plot represents it as 74 to 76.5.
