How would I do this?

iosangel:

Mehek:

You're just going to look at the `age of death` column Start off by listing those numbers from least to greatest

iosangel:

Thats how I would create the box-and whisker plot?

Mehek:

No you need to the data first to make it

Mehek:

Then at one end you mark the smallest number, then at the other the largest Then in the middle is the median (which is why we order the numbers)

Mehek:

After that, I'll explain the 4th and 5th thing

Mehek:

Mehek:

and then you see the lines between the smallest number & median / median & largest to find those numbers you're going to split the data in half and find the median for both of them

iosangel:

These are the numbers in order: 42,43,46,46,47,47,48,49,49,50,50,51,51,51,51,52,52,54,54,54,54,54,55,55,55,56,56,56,57,57,57,57,58,60,61,61,61,62,64,65,68,69,70,

iosangel:

Oh, okay.

iosangel:

So the plot only needs 3 number on it?

Mehek:

5

Mehek:

Are those the numbers from age of death only?

iosangel:

Yes

iosangel:

Wait, no it isnt

Mehek:

Oh ok it seemed more to me

Mehek:

You should have 38 numbers

iosangel:

Yes, these are the numbers. 46,49,53,56,56,57,58,60,60,63,63,64,64,65,66,67,67,67,68,70,71,71,72,73,74,77,78,78,79,80,81,83,85,88

iosangel:

From least to greatest

Mehek:

ok hopefully that's all of them

Mehek:

Now since it's in order, you can find the smallest and biggest numbers and plot them

iosangel:

|dw:1521908129502:dw|

Mehek:

Correct Let me make a new one lol |dw:1521908195059:dw|

Mehek:

Now find the median of the data

iosangel:

67 is the median

Mehek:

|dw:1521908654961:dw|

iosangel:

Wait, where did you get 48?

Mehek:

Now split the data in half from the median so one should be smallest number to the number before the median and the other data should be the number after the median to the highest

Mehek:

oh whoops it was 46

iosangel:

XD

Mehek:

|dw:1521908725074:dw|

iosangel:

|dw:1521908872017:dw| Like that?

Mehek:

No split the data in half first

Mehek:

46,49,53,56,56,57,58,60,60,63,63,64,64,65,66,67,67 First half. Find the median of it 67,68,70,71,71,72,73,74,77,78,78,79,80,81,83,85,88 Second half. Find median of this as well Whatever the medians are, you will plot those

iosangel:

Oh, okay
