Answer 3

Answer 4

here it is.. the whole 9 yards.

Answer 5

Answer 6

Okay well your instructions are right there. Find the median first by lining up the numbers in order and then crossing them out until there is one number left in the middle.

Answer 7

The mode is the one that occurs the most. Out of all of your numbers which one repeats itself the most?

Answer 8

The range is found when you subtract the smallest number from biggest number. The result is your range.

Answer 9

wait. for witch problem though?

Answer 10

1. Median...you can find the median (middle number) by putting the numbers in order, and picking out the middle number. It is good when there is an odd number of numbers, because that means there will be one middle number.
85,86,87,89,89,93,94...now count fromthe outside in and find the median (the middle number) and tell me what you get

Answer 11

This isn't hard just do it like we explained.

Answer 12

I knew that. but how would you form the boxplot?

Answer 13

ok....lets get all our info together and then we will make the box plot. Do you know how to find Q1 and Q3

Answer 14

not really.. im a little dusty on that part

Answer 15

the median ( middle number) is 89
the mode (the number that appears most often) is 89
the range is the difference between the highest number and the lowest number : 94 - 85 = 9
the mean (the average) can be found by adding up all the numbers and divididing by how many numbers there are : (85 + 86 + 87 + 89 + 89 + 93 + 94) / 7 = 623/7 = 89.

Now....Q1 (quadrant 1) ..it is basically the middle number of all the numbers before the median.
since the median is 89, then we need to find the middle number of 85,86,87...and that would be 86, so Q1 is 86

Q2 is the median, so it is 89

Q3 -- the middle number of all the numbers after the median. So we have 89,93,94...and the middle number is 93...so that is Q3



sorry..I cant draw very good on this
