Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 6.99 Create and Interpret Box Plots and Quartiles skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
A box plot for drama rehearsal times has left whisker at 16.5, box begins at 28.5, median line at 43.5, box ends at 58.5, right whisker at 77.5. A student writes the summary min = 17, Q1 = 28.5, median = 43.5, Q3 = 58.5, max = 77.5. Which statement best describes the student's match?
ANo, the minimum should be 16.5, not 17
BYes, it matches all five plotted values for drama rehearsal times
CNo, the minimum and maximum should trade places for drama rehearsal times
DNo, the median line should be left out of the summary for drama rehearsal times
Solution & Explanation:Compare each value in order. The correct summary is min = 16.5, Q1 = 28.5, median = 43.5, Q3 = 58.5, max = 77.5, so the student's summary has at least one value that does not match.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
For soil sample masses, decide how to evaluate this match. Box plot: left whisker at 5.5, box begins at 19.5, median line at 34.5, box ends at 49.5, right whisker at 65.5. Student summary: min = 5.5, Q1 = 19.5, median = 34.5, Q3 = 49.5, max = 65. Which choice is accurate?
AYes, it matches all five plotted values for soil sample masses
BNo, the minimum and maximum should trade places for soil sample masses
CNo, the median line should be left out of the summary for soil sample masses
DNo, the maximum should be 65.5, not 65
Solution & Explanation:Compare each value in order. The correct summary is min = 5.5, Q1 = 19.5, median = 34.5, Q3 = 49.5, max = 65.5, so the student's summary has at least one value that does not match.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Check this box-plot match for volunteer sign-up totals. Plot values: left whisker at 11, box begins at 26, median line at 38, box ends at 53, right whisker at 69. Student summary: min = 11, Q1 = 26, median = 38, Q3 = 53, max = 69. Which statement is correct?
ANo, Q1 should be 27 instead of 26
BNo, the median should be 39 instead of 38
CYes, it matches: min = 11, Q1 = 26, median = 38, Q3 = 53, max = 69
DNo, the maximum should be 68 instead of 69
Solution & Explanation:The student's summary matches each plotted value in order: min = 11, Q1 = 26, median = 38, Q3 = 53, max = 69.
