California Standards SDAP1.1 Know various forms of display for data sets, including a stem-and-leaf plot or box-and-whisker plot; use the forms to display a single set of data or to compare two sets of data. SDAP1.3 Understand the meaning of, and be able to compute, the minimum, the lower quartile, the median, the upper quartile, and the maximum of a data set.

Vocabulary lower quartile upper quartile box-and-whisker plot minimum maximum

Litter Size 2 3 4 5 6 Number of Litters 1 8 11 The table below summarizes a cat breeder’s records for kitten litters born in a given year. You can divide the data into four equal part using quartiles. Litter Size 2 3 4 5 6 Number of Litters 1 8 11

You know that the median of a data set divides the data into a lower half and an upper half. The median of the lower half is the lower quartile, and the median of the upper half is the upper quartile. Kitten Data Lower half Upper half 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 6 Lower quartile: 3 median of lower half Median: 4 Upper quartile: 5 median of upper half

A box-and-whisker plot shows the distribution of data A box-and-whisker plot shows the distribution of data. The middle half of the data is represented by a “box” with a vertical line at the median. The lower fourth and upper fourth quarters are represented by “whiskers” that extend to the minimum (least) and maximum (greatest) values. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Lower quartile Upper quartile Median

Use the given data to make a box-and-whisker plot. Additional Example 2: Making a Box-and-Whisker Plot Use the given data to make a box-and-whisker plot. 21, 25, 15, 13, 17, 19, 19, 21 Step 1. Order the data from least to greatest. Then find the minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile, and maximum. 13 15 17 19 19 21 21 25 minimum: 13 maximum: 25 lower quartile: = 16 15 + 17 2 upper quartile: = 21 21 + 21 2 median: = 19 19 + 19 2

Additional Example 3: Comparing Data Sets Using Box-and-Whisker Plots These box-and-whisker plots compare the ages of the first ten U.S. presidents with the ages of the last ten presidents (through George W. Bush) when they took office.

Additional Example 3 Continued A. Compare the medians and ranges. The median for the first ten presidents is slightly greater. The range for the last ten presidents is greater.

Additional Example 3 Continued B. Compare the ranges of the middle half of the data for each. The range of the middle half of the data is greater for the last ten presidents.

Check It Out! Example 3 These box-and-whisker plots compare the point per quarter at Super Bowl XXXVII. Quarter 1 2 3 4 Oakland 6 12 Tampa Bay 17 14 Oakland 0 3 6 9 12 15 18 Tampa Bay

Check It Out! Example 3A A. Compare the medians and ranges. The median for Tampa Bay is significantly greater and the range for Tampa Bay is slightly greater. Oakland 0 3 6 9 12 15 18 Tampa Bay

Check It Out! Example 3B B. Compare the ranges of the middle half of the data for each. Oakland 0 3 6 9 12 15 18 Tampa Bay The range of the middle half of the data is greater for Tampa Bay.
