Chapter 10, Problem 26RE
Solution

a.

To Plot: The boxplot of the length of songs data.

The earlier 12 years and later 12 years data boxplot is:

  PRECALCULUS:GRAPHICAL,...-NASTA ED., Chapter 10, Problem 26RE , additional homework tip 1

  PRECALCULUS:GRAPHICAL,...-NASTA ED., Chapter 10, Problem 26RE , additional homework tip 2

Given information:

    Earlier 12 YearsLater 12 Years
    143136
    120124
    120179
    139131
    124180

    132202
    148191
    163197
    140230
    177190

Concept Used:

The boxplot is created in the following steps:

Step 1: Arrange the data in ascending order.

Step 2: Compute the quartiles of the data as Q1,Median,Q3.

Step 3: Consider the data on y-axis and plot the quartiles to obtain the box.

Step 4: Now compute the lower limit and upper limit to find the length of whiskers as follows,

  Lower Limt=Q1-1.5×IQRUpper Limt=Q3+1.5×IQR

Step 5: Plot the limits and connect the points with the box obtained using the quartiles.

Plot:

The data in ascending order is:

The boxplot of earlier 12 years data is:

  Q1=median(X1), where X1 is upper part for data=127.5Q3=median(X2), where X2 is lower part for data=146IQR=148−128=18.5Median=139.5

  PRECALCULUS:GRAPHICAL,...-NASTA ED., Chapter 10, Problem 26RE , additional homework tip 3

The boxplot of later 12 years is:

  Q1=median(X1), where X1 is upper part for data=136.5Q3=median(X2), where X2 is lower part for data=194IQR=194−136.5=57.5Median=179.5

b.

To find: The data that has greater interquartile range

The data of later 12 years had greater interquartile range.

Given:

  PRECALCULUS:GRAPHICAL,...-NASTA ED., Chapter 10, Problem 26RE , additional homework tip 5

The quartiles from the boxtplot are

  Q1=127.5Q3=146IQR=18.5

  PRECALCULUS:GRAPHICAL,...-NASTA ED., Chapter 10, Problem 26RE , additional homework tip 6

The quartiles from the boxtplot are

  Q1=136.5Q3=194IQR=57.5

The IQR of the later 12 years data has IQR=57.5 which is greater than the earlier 12 years data.
