The table shows the record low temperatures for several states. graph the temperatures on a number line. bonus !

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

We have been given a table that shows the record low temperatures for several states. We are asked to graph the temperatures on a number line.

First of all we will draw a number line going to infinity into both directions.  

To graph the given temperatures on number line let us arrange temperatures in less negative order.  

-34, -32, -30, -29, -27.  

Since we know that numbers with large negative values lie on the left at number line. Let us graph our large negative temperature on the left at our number line.      

We can see that -34 is the most negative temperature, therefore, it will be on the left most side of our number line.  

-27 is greatest of our given negative temperatures. -27 is less negative temperature than our other given low temperatures, therefore, it will lie on the right most side of our number line.  

Other temperatures will lie between these two values according to their temperatures.    

-32 is second large negative temperature after -34, therefore, it will lie on the right side of -34.

-30 will lie on the right side of -32 and -29 will lie on the right of -32.

the results from a pre-test for students for the year 2000 and the year 2010 are illustrated in the box plot. what do these results tell us about how students performed on the 29 question pre-test for the two years?

if we compare only the lowest and highest scores between the two years, we might conclude that the students in 2010 did better than the students in 2010. this conclusion seems to follow since the lowest score of 8 in 2010 is greater in value than the lowest score of 6 in 2000. also, the highest score of 28 in 2010 is greater in value than the highest score of 27 in 2000.

but the box portion of the illustration gives us more detailed information. the middle bar in each box shows us that the median score of 20 in 2000 is greater in value than the median score of 17 in 2010. further, we note that the box and whiskers divide the illustration into four pieces. each of these four pieces represents the same portion of students. so, the upper half of the students in 2000 scored in the same score range as the upper one-fourth of the students in 2010, see the illustration at a score of 20.

by considering the upper one-fourth, upper half, and upper three-fourths instead of just the lowest and highest scores, we would conclude that the students as a whole did much better in 2000 than in 2010. we would conclude that as a whole the students in 2010 are less prepared than the students in 2000.

in this section, we discuss box-and-whisker plots and the five key values used in constructing a box-and-whisker plot. the key values are called a five-number summary, which consists of the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum.
