Q. Based on the following calculator output, determine the inter-quartile range of the dataset. 1-Var-Stats xˉ=198.571428571Σx=1390Σx2=280364Sx=26.9249397576σx=24.9276504128n=7minX=159Q1=175Med2=199Q3=209maxX=244Answer:
Understand IQR definition: Understand what the inter-quartile range (IQR) is.The inter-quartile range is the difference between the third quartile (Q3) and the first quartile (Q1) of a dataset. It measures the spread of the middle 50% of the data.
Identify Q1 and Q3: Identify the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3) from the calculator output.According to the calculator output, Q1 is 175 and Q3 is 209.
Calculate IQR: Calculate the inter-quartile range (IQR) using the values of Q1 and Q3.IQR=Q3−Q1IQR=209−175IQR=34
Verify values and subtraction: Verify that the values used are correct and that the subtraction is done correctly.The values for Q1 and Q3 are taken directly from the calculator output, and the subtraction is straightforward. There is no indication of a math error.
