The data set below represents the total number of home runs that a baseball player hit each season for 11 seasons of play. what is the interquartile range of the data? 14, 22, 19, 21, 30, 32, 25, 15, 16, 27, 28

  A. 12

Given the data set for 11 seasons of play14, 22, 19, 21, 30, 32, 25, 15, 16, 27, 28
Quartiles (usually 3 in number; Q1. Q2 and Q3) divide a rank-ordered data set into four equal parts14, 22, 19, 21, 30, 32, 25, 15, 16, 27, 28

First order the data set by rank12, 14, 16, 19, 21, 22, 25, 27, 28, 30, 32
Q1 is the first quartileQ2 is the second quartileQ3 is the third quartileInterquartile range = Q3 – Q1
The median value in the set, Q2 = 22
First half of the rank-ordered data set is therefore 12, 14, 16, 19, 21While the Second half of the rank-ordered data set is 25, 27, 28, 30, 32
The median value in the first half of the set, Q1 = 16The median value in the second half of the set, Q3 = 28
Interquartile range = Q3 – Q1Therefore, interquartile range = 28 – 16= 12
The interquartile range of the data is 12

J= r + 9 because since jessica rode 9 more miles than roger, you add 9 miles to rogers mileage.
