Box-and-Whisker Plot: 1. The Box Plots Show The Times For 15 Boys and 15 Girls To Run 100 M

The document contains information about box-and-whisker plots and stem-and-leaf diagrams. It includes: 1) A box-and-whisker plot comparing the 100m run times of 15 boys and 15 girls, showing the boys have a faster maximum time. 2) Another box-and-whisker plot comparing statistics test scores of boys and girls, with the median for boys greater and their interquartile range smaller. 3) Details on constructing and interpreting a stem-and-leaf diagram showing ages that received relief goods, with a median age of 28 years.

Box-and-Whisker Plot
 Constructing and interpreting box plots from lists of data and grouped data
 Comparing distributions and making inferences

1. The box plots show the times for 15 boys and 15 girls to run 100 m.

BOYS GIRLS
Minimum: 10.88 seconds Minimum: 11.88 seconds
75+100=175 75+100=175
175/2= 87.2 175/2=87.5
Q1: 12.38 seconds Q1: 13.38 seconds
25+50=75 25+50=75
75/2= 37.5 75/2=37.5
Median: 12.63 seconds Median: 13.88 seconds
50+75=125 75+100=175
125/2= 62.5 175/2=87.5
Q3: 13.13 seconds Q3: 14.38 seconds
25/2= 12.5 25+50=75
75/2=37.5
Maximum: 13.38 seconds Maximum: 15.38 seconds
25+50=75 25+50=75
75/2=37.5 75/2=37.5

 The boys are the fastest because their maximum (13.38 seconds) is just the Q1 (13.38 seconds)
of the girls. The data shows that the weakest of the boys is equals to the Q1 of the girls
2. The box plots show the scores achieved by boys and girls in a Statistics test.

a. Copy and complete this table.

Q1 Q2 Q3 IQR

Boys 4.5 6.5 7.5 3


Girls 3.5 5.5 8.5 5

a. Copy and complete this table

i. The median for boys is greater than the median for girls.

ii. Boys have a smaller interquartile range than girls.


Stem-and-Leaf Diagram

 Constructing and interpreting stem-and-leaf diagram from lists of data and grouped data
 Identifying the median and the total number of cases from the given diagram

1. The stem-and-leaf diagram shows the ages of people who received relief goods during the
first project of the outreach program.

0 3 5 6 8 9

1 2 2 5 8 8 9

2 1 3 6 6 7 8 8 9 9

3 2 4 4 5 6 6 7

4 1 1 4 5 5 8

5 4 7

Key: 1 | 2 represents 12 years

a. What is the median age?


Count all the numbers on leaves part
35/2=17.5 or 18
The median is 28

b. Work out the interquartile range.


=28+1 =28+1 =3(28+1)
4 2 4
Q1=7.25 Q2=14.5 Q3=21.75

IQR = Q3-Q1
=21.75-7.25
=14.5

c. During the second visit of the outreach program, the median age was 22 and the
interquartile range was 10.
Compare the two distributions.
The first group who visited the outreach program was younger than the visitor in the
second visit.
2. The stem-and-leaf diagram shows the masses, in kilograms, of goats.

5 1 2 2 4 5 9

6 0 3 5 7 7 7 8 9

7 2 3 3 5 6 9

8 0 0 2

Key: 6 | 0 represents 60 kg

a. How many goats are recorded in the stem-and-leaf diagram?


-Count all the number on leaves part
23

n+1 n+1 3(n+1)


b. Work out , , and .
4 2 4
=23+1 =23+1 =3(23+1)
4 2 4
=6 =12 =18

c. Find these data values by counting from the first one.


6 = 59
12 = 67
18 = 75

d. Write down the median value.


23/2 = 11.5 or 12
The median value is 67

e. Work out the interquartile range of the masses.

IQR=Q3-Q1

18-6= 12
