Please help! I'll fan and medal you. :) The box-and-whisker plot below shows the numbers of text messages receive in one day by students in the seventh and eighth grades at Lincoln Middle School. First describe the overlap of the two sets of data. Find the IQR of each set. Find the difference between the medians of sets. What number multiplied by the IQR equals the difference between the medians of the two sets?

Can you copy the link and post it so I can see it?

seems a bit sadistic, but i spose its meant to be a sort of practice to get you better acquainted with a box and whisker plot :/

OpenStudy (bealiberty47):

I agree and cat and whisker plots just confuse me

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the overlap is absurd ... youll have to find out what they mean by 'describe' and IQR is just the width of the box part. from |---------|

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the difference between the medians is just: median1 - median2 ...

OpenStudy (bealiberty47):

The IQR is every segment or each box thing
