Exploring Quartiles DriverYearSpeed (MPH) Arie Luyendyk1990185 Rick Mears1991176 Bobby Rahal1986170 Juan Montoya2000167 Emerson Fittipaldi1989167 Helio Castronoves2002166 Rick Mears1984163 Mark Donahue1972162 Al Unser1987162 Tom Sneva1983162 Fastest winning speeds of the Indy 500

Finding the Inter-quartile Range (IQR) Step 1: Write the speeds in order from least to greatest. 162, 162, 162, 163, 166, 167, 167, 170, 176, 185 Step 2: Find the median of the data since the median separates the data into two halves. 162, 162, 162, 163, 166, 167, 167, 170, 176, 185 Since there are two numbers in the middle we have to find the mean of the two. (166 + 167) / 2 = 166.5

Steps Continued… Step 3: Find the median of the upper half of the numbers________. This number is called the upper quartile. Circle this number in your step 1 and label it UQ Step 4: Find the median of the lower half of the numbers_______. This number is called the lower quartile. Circle this number in your step 1 and label it LQ 170 162 162, 162, 162, 163, 166, 167, 167, 170, 176, 185 LQ UQ

Steps Continued… Step 5: The middle half of the data goes from the upper quartile (UQ) to the lower quartile (LQ). Subtract the LQ from the UQ. 170 – 162 = 8 This is called the inter-quartile range of the scores!! The IQR describes the variability of the middle 50% of the data values. 162, 162, 162, 163, 166, 167, 167, 170, 176, 185 LQ UQ

162, 162, 162, 163, 166, 167, 167, 170, 176, 185 LQ UQ Write in your notes: What 5 points do you need to know to find the IQR? 1.Least value 2.LQ 3.Median 4.UQ 5.Greatest value

Find the Stats… Step 1: Order the data… 81, 81, 82, 82, 85, 85, 93, 95, 100, 100, 112, 120, 128 Range: 128 – 81 = 47 Median: 93 Upper Quarter (UQ): (100 + 112)/2 = 106 Lower Quartile (LQ): 82 Interquartile Range: 106 – 82 = 24 Mean: about 96 Mode: No mode because 81, 82, 85, 100 each appear twice Outliers: 128

Write in your notes: What 5 points do you need to know to find the IQR? 1.Least value 2.LQ 3.Median 4.UQ 5.Greatest value With these 5 points we can create a BOX and WHISKERS PLOT 81, 81, 82, 82, 85, 85, 93, 95, 100, 100, 112, 120, 128 LQ UQ
