Q. In the data set below, what are the lower quartile, the median, and the upper quartile?\newline11 22 22 22 22 44 44 55 77 77\newlinelower quartile == ______\newlinemedian == ______\newlineupper quartile == ______
  1. Question Prompt: Question prompt: Determine the lower quartile, median, and upper quartile of the given data set.
  2. Arrange Data Set: Arrange the data set in ascending order, if it is not already. The given data set is already in ascending order: 1,2,2,2,2,4,4,5,7,71, 2, 2, 2, 2, 4, 4, 5, 7, 7.
  3. Find Median: Find the median of the data set. Since there are 1010 numbers, the median will be the average of the 55th and 66th numbers. The 55th and 66th numbers are both 22 and 44, respectively.\newlineMedian = (2+4)/2=6/2=3(2 + 4) / 2 = 6 / 2 = 3
  4. Identify Lower Quartile: Identify the data set for the lower quartile. For the lower quartile, consider the first half of the data set, excluding the median if it is part of the data. Since we have an even number of data points, we will not exclude the median. The first half is 1,2,2,2,21, 2, 2, 2, 2.
  5. Find Lower Quartile: Find the value of the lower quartile. Since there are 55 numbers in the first half, the lower quartile will be the median of these 55 numbers. The middle number is the 33rd number, which is 22.\newlineLower quartile =2= 2
  6. Identify Upper Quartile: Identify the data set for the upper quartile. For the upper quartile, consider the second half of the data set, excluding the median if it is part of the data. Since we have an even number of data points, we will not exclude the median. The second half is 4,4,5,7,74, 4, 5, 7, 7.
  7. Find Upper Quartile: Find the value of the upper quartile. Since there are 55 numbers in the second half, the upper quartile will be the median of these 55 numbers. The middle number is the 33rd number, which is 55.\newlineUpper quartile = 55
