Median: the middle value when the values are written in numerical order
~ If a data set has an even number of values, you average the two middle values to find
the median.
Range: the difference between the greatest value and the least value
Example 1: Find the mean, median, mode, and range of the data set.
Median: _111__ 90, 96, 105, 110, 112, 118, 128, 133 90, 96, 105, 110, 112, 118, 128, 133
Mode: __none__ 90, 96, 105, 110, 112, 118, 128, 133 (no data piece occurs more than once)
2) 300, 367, 300, 307, 410, 300, 200, 280, 300, 240

4) In the diagram below, 𝒎 ∥ 𝒏. If 𝒎∠𝟏 = 𝟓𝟒°, find the missing angle measures.
Box-and-whisker plot: A data display that organizes data values into 4 groups.
* Each of the 4 groups represents 25% of the data.
- The entire box represents about 50% of the data.
- Each whisker represents about 25% of the data.
* The interquartile range is the difference between the upper and lower quartile.
- Find the median of the upper half and the median of the lower half.
The median of the lower half is called the lower quartile.
The median of the upper half is called the upper quartile.
- Identify the least data value and the greatest data value.
The least data value is called the lower extreme.
The greatest data value is called the upper extreme.
- Draw a number line and plot the median, quartiles, and extremes.
Draw a box from lower quartile to upper quartile & draw a vertical line through the median.
Draw a horizontal line (a “whisker”) from the edge of the box to each extreme.
Example 1: The data below represents the numbers of oranges a local farmer collected from one
of his orange tress for the last 9 years. Create a box-and-whisker plot for the data.
- 264, 360, 380, 407, 452, 457, 458, 460, 572 * Median: 452
360+380
- Lower half of data: 264, 360, 380, 407 * Lower Quartile: 2
= 370
458+460
Upper half of data: 457, 458, 460, 572 * Upper Quartile: 2
= 459
- Lower Extreme: 264
Upper Extreme: 572
260 280 300 320 340 360 380 400 420 440 460 480 500 520 540 560 580 600
