Fourteen different second-year medical students at a hospital measured the blood pressure of the same person. The systolic readings (mm Hg) are listed below. Use the given data to construct a boxplot and identify the 5-number summary. 148 145 135 138 120 125 133 130 125 149 120 140 147 150
solution:-
given values
148,145,135,138,120,125,133,130,125,149,120,140,147,150
arrange in order
120 ,120,125 , 125,130,133,135,138 ,140 , 145 ,147,148 ,149,150
=> Boxplot
5 number summary
=> minimum = 120
=> quartile Q1 = 125
explanation :- The first quartile is the median of the bottom half
of the numbers
=> median = 136.5
explanation:-median = (135 + 138)/2 = 136.5
=> quartile Q3 = 147
explanation:- The third quartile is the median of the upper half of
the numbers
=> maximum = 150
