OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

So did you add up all the numbers and divide by how mane there are?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you add up all of the numbers and then divide by the amount of numbers

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Good Job :)

i know that 151 is an outliner but im not sure if 3 is

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

pick one a or b and we will go from there :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i say b

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

CORRECT

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Correct! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only if 3 is an outliner.....really im confused can you explain it

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

so first we put the values in ascending order.

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

3 31 46 55 59 62 72 73 80 82 90 151

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

wait u got this @TheSmartOne

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then i find the median, Q1, and Q3

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

outliner are the numbers that are the smallest and the largest in the qroup of numbers

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

yea we find the median :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then i minus Q3 from Q1 which I got 81-49

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

81 is correct but 49 isnt D:, which is Q3 and Q1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then what is Q1?

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

you were close though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is Q1? im not sure now because I though it was 49

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

Find the first quartile Q1: The number of values below the median is: 3 31 46 55 59 62 Find the median of these values n=6 (n+1)/2 = 3.5 3.5 lies between 3 and 4 Median of the 6 values = (46+55)/2 = 50.5 Q1 = 50.5

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

you get it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oooooo i get it now I had the wrong number... haha thank you for you time @jagr2713 and @TheSmartOne

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

anytime buddy :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could you check one for me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

another i mean?

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

ummm ill try :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Given the box plot, will the mean or the median provide a better description of the center? (1 point)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here ill open another question box @jagr2713

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hang on im having trouble

jagr2713 (jagr2713):
