This video tutorial explains how to create and interpret a box plot, also known as a box and whisker plot. It covers the concept of quartiles, the five-number summary, and common misconceptions about box plots. The tutorial guides viewers through organizing data, finding the minimum, maximum, median, and quartiles, and constructing a box plot. By the end, viewers will understand how to represent data on a number line using a box plot and identify the five-number summary from it.

What is another name for a box plot?

• Scatter Plot

• Box and Whisker Plot

• Pie Chart

• Histogram

What is a common misconception about the sections of a box plot?

• Each section contains an equal number of data points.

• Wider sections contain more data points.

• Narrower sections contain fewer data points.

• The sections are not related to data points.

What is the first step in creating a box plot?

• Calculating the mean

• Finding the median

• Organizing the data

• Drawing the number line

What does the five-number summary include?

• Quartile 1, quartile 2, quartile 3, quartile 4, and maximum

• Minimum, maximum, mean, median, and mode

• Minimum, quartile 1, median, quartile 3, and maximum

• Mean, median, mode, range, and standard deviation

How do you find the median in a data set?

• Add all numbers and divide by the count

• Find the middle number in an ordered set

• Subtract the smallest number from the largest

• Count the frequency of each number

Where does the whisker start in a box plot?

• At the median

• At quartile 3

• At quartile 1

• At the minimum data point

What does the line inside the box of a box plot represent?

• Quartile 1

• Quartile 2 or the median

• Quartile 3

• The mean
