Question

The following data points represent the number of points scored by each player on the Wildcats basketball team last game. ____________________________ 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13 (Find the interquartile range (IQR) of the data set.)

Answer 1

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

• If you take the lowest half of the data (from the lower extreme to the median) and find the median of these numbers, that is called the lower quartile or quartile 1.
• If you take the upper half of the data (from the upper extreme to the median) and find the median of these numbers, that is called the upper quartile or quartile 3.
• The interquartile range is the difference between quartile 1 and quartile 3.

• 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13
• Median=8.5
• Q1=6.5
• Q3=10.5
• 10.5-6.5=4
