What is the definition of box plot?
a graphic way to display the median, quartiles, and extremes of a data set on a number line to show the distribution of the data.
How many quartiles are there?
There are 5 quartiles in any data set.
What does a box and whisker plot show about the data?
It is marked by the minimum, and maximum, the median, as well as the lower and upper quartiles. It also shows the skewness of the data.
How do you find the inner and outer quartiles?
To find the inner quartiles (Q1 and Q3), first arrange your data in ascending order. Q1 is the median of the lower half of the data, and Q3 is the median of the upper half. The inner quartiles divide the data into four equal parts. The outer quartiles also known as the minimum and maximum values, are the smallest and largest values in the data set.
What is cumolative frequency curve?
A cumulative frequency curve is a graph that shows the cumulative frequency of a data set. This type of graph can present data, such as medians and quartiles. Another name for this curve is an Ogive.
HOW are quartiles helpful in describing data?
They are a simple measure of the spread of the data, which is not affected by extreme values.
What is the usefulness of quartiles in business?
It is a simple but crude measure of the spread of data.
Data that is more than 1.5 times the interquartile range from the quartiles?
Outliers
What are the three numbers that separate a set of data into four parts called?
quartiles
Three values one of which is the median that divide a data set into fourths?
Quartiles.
What is quartiles?
The quartile deviation(QD) is half the difference between the highest and lower quartile in a distribution.
How much data do you need in order to have quartiles?
Definately more than 4 pieces of data (intuitively, otherwise at least 2 of your quartiles will fall in exactly the same place as each other). But I think that's the only limit on how much data you need - there is no upper limit.
