Question 9 (1 point) A sample of 80 observations was collected from a population and this boxplot was created from the data. Select ALL statements that are true regarding this boxplot. 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 the long right whisker (line) represents about 30 of the 80 data values At least 20 observations are less than 50. The data appears to be skewed to the right The middle 50% of the data is between 55 and 65

A sample of forty values was selected from a population and then used to create the given simple boxplot. Select all statements that are true regarding this boxplot. If this simple boxplot was changed to a modified boxplot (one that detects possible outliers) we would definitely find at least one possible outlier. we should expect at least 25% of the data to be greater than or equal to 65. This boxplot has a long whisker (single line) on the right and a short whisker (single line) the left. This implies there are more data values in the right whisker than in the left whisker. There are two boxes in this boxplot, the one of the right and the one on the left. The box on the right should represents 10 data values.

The following boxplot represents data giving the number of words in twenty-two sentences from a book by a certain author, known as Author A. Sentence length (words) (Note that the table of summary values has not been included in the boxplot as this question is assessing your understanding of the shape of the boxplot.) Choose the one option from the list below that is true. Select one: The range is smaller than the interquartile range. The median is greater than the upper quartile. The median is closer to the minimum than the maximum. The median is lower than the lower quartile.

Consider the following boxplot: Small Group Time Spent at Table 20 40 60 80 100 minutes Figure 2: Boxplot Which of these statements is true about the data the boxplot represents? More than half of the data is smaller than the mean: The data is normally distributed the data is left skewed the median value is about 70
