The term for a point that varies greatly from all other data points is known as an <u>OUTLIER</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

  • An outlier is a data point that differs significantly from other observations. An outlier may be due to variability in the measurement or it may indicate experimental error.
  • An outlier can cause serious problems in statistical analyses.
  • An outlier is an observation that lies an abnormal distance from other values in a random sample from a population. In a sense, this definition leaves it up to the analyst to decide what will be considered abnormal.
  • A point that falls outside the data set's inner fences is classified as a minor outlier, while one that falls outside the outer fences is classified as a major outlier.
  • The data here appear to come from a linear model with a given slope and variation except for the outlier which appears to have been generated from some other model.
  • Outliers can occur by chance in any distribution, but they often indicate either measurement error or that the population has a heavy-tailed distribution.

Which of the following can be determined from a box-and-whisker plot?
elixir [45]
<h3>Answer: B) Median</h3>

The middle vertical line inside the box is the median or the value of Q2. The term "median" is used more often instead of Q2, but your book may use this terminology as well.

---------------

side notes:

* The left and right edges of the box are Q1 and Q3 respectively

* The IQR (interquartile range) is found by subtracting Q3 and Q1

* The min and max are the left and right most edges of the the whiskers, this is assuming there are no outliers

* There is no way to get the mean or mode from a box and whisker plot alone.

* The term "average" is too vague and could refer to mean, median, or mode.
