Ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1. find the median value in the stem and leaf plot 2. find the lower quartile or median of the lower half of the data 3. find the upper quartile or median of the upper half of the data. 4. the Interqartile range (IQR), IQR = Upper Quartile - Lower Quartile give it a try i ll guide u through it , hope this helps

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The median is 42.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I added all of the numbers and then divided by the total amount of numbers.. And I did it 3 times, and always got 42.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 42.5 too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, now what do I do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find the lower quartile or median of the lower half of the data

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, divide 42.5 by 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

21.25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now find the upper quartile or median of the upper half of the data.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

21.25?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

noo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You said "upper half"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm stuck.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok this will help you , i got these step of a website 1. How many data points have you here? 2. Separate the left five data points (the five smallest ones) from the right five (the five largest ones). 3. Find the middle data point in each set of five. The midpoint ofthe left five data points is Q1, the first quartile. The midpoint of the right five is Q3, the third quartile. 4. Subtract Q1 from Q3. This difference is the IQR: interquartile

OpenStudy (anonymous):

31 33 35 41 43 - smaller five 46 48 49 49 50 -larger five

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the middle of the smaller numbers is 36.6.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

give me a min i ll explain :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how about u use this enter all ur data like 31,33,35.... https://www.easycalculation.com/statistics/box-plot-grapher.php

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and u see that what is 1st quad and 3rd quad

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me know ur answer ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3rd quartile is 44.5 - 49. 1st quartile is 35 - ?.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

44.5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3rd quad is 49 and 1st quad 35

OpenStudy (anonymous):

IQR = Upper Quartile - Lower Quartile

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what u get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://prntscr.com/9ipvvk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is 49-35

OpenStudy (anonymous):

14! Thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem hope u got what 1st quad and last quadrant is ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1st quad is 35 and last quad is 49

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good and if u have sometime just go to Khan academy and write ur topic and they have free good videos on that they are not that long just 5-10 min

Thanks!
