The box-and-whisker plot is attached.
We first order the data from least to greatest:
67,68,68,69,70,72,73,74,75,75,76,78,79,79,80,83,84,85,85,88
Now we find the median. Since there are 20 data values, the median is between 75 and 76:
(75+76)/2 = 151/2 = 75.5
Now we find the Lower Quartile (LQ). We do this by finding the median of the lower half of data (from the median down). There are 10 values here; the median is between 70 and 72:
(70+72)/2 = 142/2 = 71
Find the Upper Quartile (UQ). Do this by finding the median of the upper half of data (from the median up). There are 10 values here; the median is between 80 and 83:
(80+83)/2 = 163/2 = 81.5
The middle bar of the box is over the median. The left hand side of the box is over LQ, and the right hand side of the box is over UQ. Now we draw a whisker from the box to the highest value, 88, and from the box to the lowest value, 67.

To construct the equations for these lines, we are going to use the point-slope formula, which is:
is the slope of the line
is a point on the line
1)
In this case, our point is (2, -1) and our line has a slope of 5. (Remember that the line is parallel, meaning that it has the same slope as the given line. Since the line is in the y = mx + b format, we could easily pick out the slope m as being 5.)
Thus, we can "plug in" what we know into our formula to find the equation of our line:
2)
We are going to do the same thing, except our point is now (0, -5) and our slope is now 9.
Our equations are:
1) y = 5x - 11
2) y = 9x - 5
