Given:
A data set has a median of 12, an upper quartile of 15, a lower quartile of 10, a minimum of 4, and a maximum of 20.
To find:
The correct statement for the box plot.
Solution:
Lower quartile is 10 and upper quartile is 15, so the box will go from 10 to 15.
Median of the data set is 12, so a line dividing the box will be at 12.
Minimum value is 4 and lower quartile is 10, so the left whisker will go from 4 to 10.
Upper quartile is 15 and maximum value is 20, so the right whisker will go from 15 to 20.
Therefore, the correct option is B.
