Answer:
A box plot is drawn with end points at 24 and 49.The box extends from 28 to 44 and a vertical line is drawn inside the box at 34.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ordering the data given :
24,28,32,34,40,44,49
We can calculate the 5 number summary required to give the appropriate boxplot that can be produced :
Minimum = 24
Maximum = 49
Median = 1/2(n+1)th term
n = 7
Median = 1/2(8) = 4th term
Median = 34
Lower quartile, Q1 = 1/4(n+1)th term
n = 7
1/4(8) = 2nd term
Q1 = 28
Upper quartile : 3/4(n+1)th term
n = 7
Q3 = 3/4(8) = 6th term
Q3= 44
