Title: Boxplots

WARM UP: WRITE THIS IN YOUR NOTES, draw the picture, and write the definitions :

Boxplots show the "five number summary" of the data, dividing the data into quarters (25%).

Minimum: The lowest value of the data set

First Quartile (Q1): Middle of the lower half of the data set. 25% of the data lies below this value and 75% lies above.

Median: Middle of the data set. Half the data (50%) lies below this value and half (50%) lies above.

Third Quartile (Q3): Middle of the upper half of the data set. 75% of the data lies below this value and 25% lies above.

Maximum: The highest value of the data set.

Two additional pieces of information that can be determined are:

The Interquartile Range (IQR) = Q3 - Q1

The Range = Max - Min

These pieces of information will show the extent to which the data is located near the center or near the extremes of the data set.
