- HW: Blog Review - 11.16.11
In Pre-Algebra, students analyzed box-and-whisker plots. Students took their previous knowledge of arranging data sets from least to greatest and locating the median. Once the median was identified, students decomposed that information into first and third quartiles. Our box was they constructed over an appropriate number line and finally whiskers were drawn to indicate both the least and greatest value.
- HW: Analyze the picture to answer the following questions.
- Which company sold the most stocks in the third quartile?
- Which company sold the fewest stocks in the first quartile?
- Infer as to which company may be a newly formed organization and state why you made that inference.
- HW: View the video again at home and let me know if you felt it was beneficial to your gaining a better understanding of box-and-whisker plots.
| What fact(s) can be obtained from analyzing these box-and-whisker plots? |
I thought it was kind of clear but i Still do not get where the 1.5 comes in and how to do the whisker part.

3. I think company A is the newest because they didn't sell very many stocks in the first and third quartiles, and many other companies might have regular costumers.

3. I think Company A would be the newly formed company. I think this because in both the first and third quartile, they sold the fewest amount of stocks. If the company was new, they would have less business because of lack of advertisement and experience.

First one is company C because they sold 1,250.
ReplyDeleteSecond one is company A because they only sold about 500.
The last question is company A because they had the stocks sold overall.
