The following box plot shows the number of years during which 40 schools have participated in an interschool swimming meet: A bo
x and whisker plot is drawn using a number line from 0 to 10 with primary markings and labels at 0, 5, 10. In between two primary markings are 4 secondary markings. The box extends from 1 to 6 on the number line. There is a vertical line at 3.5. The whiskers end at 0 and 8. Above the plot is written Duration of Participation. Below the plot is written Years. At least how many schools have participated for more than 1 year and less than 6 years?
really hard to tell what the box plot is like without an attachment so im gonna help u find it out anyway
Step-by-step explanation:
basically when u look at a box plot and the range the line in the middle is the median and then the max the lowest range the lower quartile and then the higher quartile you can find ur anser, simply find the median first, find where the lower quartile is and then the lowest number in the group thats in betweeen 1 and 6
The box encloses data between the two quartiles, namely at least half of the data. If there are 40 schools, then half of them would be in the box, between 1 and 6.
