At least how many schools have participated for 2 years or fewer?

Answer 2

@niahmk Hi! Welcome to QC. First things first, let's look at the rules of your problem.

We are working with a box plot based on years that colleges have participated in the local college fair. Here is the data we have so far:
1. The total number of colleges is 24; this may or may not be necessary to resolving your problem.
2. The [number line] extends from 0 to 10, which is the ends of our number line.
3. Primary markings are at 0, 5, and 10 [on the number line.]
4. The actual box extends from 2 to 7 on the number line, which means [the box begins at 2 and ends at 7].
5. There is a vertical line at 4, which implies this line is [within the box and thus the median line].
6. The [whiskers end at 0 and 9] which means that we do not have any colleges that attended for 10 years. However, we do have colleges that haven't attended for any years.
```
Based on this, you should have a box plot that looks something like this
