Answer 3

Recap on median= when ranked in ordinal manner the number in middle is called median

Answer 4

Mode=most frequently occurring number.
Be careful for the confusion

Answer 5

Your attachment is comprised of "box and whisker" diagrams .

Answer 6

Notice that the line separating the quartiles is the "median" and no other.

Answer 7

Ok I see

Answer 8

For, if the box and whisker represented mean, it would not show intern quartile range
nor anything that has to do with percentile.

Answer 9

Note that in most cases mean is slightly below the 50th percentile because mean represents the overall aggregate of all samples

Answer 10

on the other hand, median represents exactly the 50th percentile

Answer 11

Therefore according to your question the Company B manufactures laptops with batteries that last longer than those manufactured by any other companies.
