Courses Which data set could be represented by the box plot shown below?

D. 54, 60, 65,66,67,70,70,72,73,75,76

Box-plot = {54, 65, 69, 73, 76}

Step-by-step explanation:

The data provided for the number of desks on each floor of Texter Corporate is as follows:

S = {54, 60, 65, 66, 67, 69, 70, 72, 73, 75, 76}

There are a total of n = 11 floors.  

A boxplot, also known as a box and whisker plot is a method to demonstrate the distribution of a data-set based on the following 5 number summary,

Minimum (shown at the bottom of the chart)

First Quartile (shown by the bottom line of the box)

Median (or the second quartile) (shown as a line in the center of the box)

Third Quartile (shown by the top line of the box)

Maximum (shown at the top of the chart).

Arrange the data in ascending order as follows:

S': = {54 , 60 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 69 , 70 , 72 , 73 , 75 , 76}

The minimum value is:

Minimum = 54

The maximum value is:

Maximum = 76

As there are odd number of values the median is the middle value.

Median = 6th value = 69

The first quartile is the median of the first half of the data.

S'₁ = {54 , 60 , 65 , 66 , 67}

First quartile = 3rd value = 65

The third quartile is the median of the second half of the data.

S'₂ = {70 , 72 , 73 , 75 , 76}

Third quartile = 3rd value = 73

Thus, summarized data for the box plot is:

Box-plot = {54, 65, 69, 73, 76}
