The video tutorial explains how to interpret and compare box plots by analyzing their shape, center, and spread. It covers the five-number summary, discusses symmetry and skewness, and compares texting habits across different age groups. The tutorial also introduces the SOX method for organizing thoughts on shape, outliers, center, and spread.

What is the primary goal of this lesson on box plots?

• To compare box plots with other types of graphs

• To interpret box plots by analyzing shape, center, and spread

• To understand the history of box plots

• To learn how to create box plots

Which part of the box plot represents the median?

• The line in the box

• The start of the box

• The end of the box

• The end of the whisker

How is symmetry determined in a box plot?

• By counting the number of data points

• By comparing the length of the whiskers

• By checking if the left and right sides are about the same size

• By measuring the width of the box

What does the interquartile range represent in a box plot?

• The total range of the data

• The number of outliers

• The middle half of the data

• The average of the data

What does the SOX method stand for?

• Shape, Outliers, Center, Symmetry

• Shape, Outliers, Center, Spread

• Size, Outliers, Center, Spread

• Shape, Outliers, Comparison, Spread

Which age group is more varied according to the box plot analysis?

• Variety is not discussed

• 10 to 22 year olds

• 23 to 35 year olds

• Both are equally varied

What is the median difference between the two age groups?

• 10 texts per day

• 6.5 texts per day

• 15 texts per day

• 5 texts per day

Why are 23 to 35 year olds less varied in texting habits?

• They text less frequently

• They have more outliers

• They are closer in life stages

• They are more technologically advanced

What should you do if no outliers are shown in a box plot?

• Assume there are no outliers

• Ignore the outliers

• Use equations to determine if there are any

• Add outliers manually

What is the final step in using the SOX method?

• Compare with other graphs

• Create a new box plot

• Calculate the mean

• Put data spread into context
