| The following boxplot gives the distribution of the percent of times a batter got on base for 108 batters in the American League during the 1999 baseball season.
Based on the boxplot , which statement is true? | | A | The distribution appears to be skewed to the right | | B | There do not appear to be any outliers | | C | The distribution appears to be skewed to the left | | D | There appear to be outliers at about 27 and 44 | |
A)
As we can see, the values of the quartiles are approximately
Q3 = 41
Q1 = 31
Thus,
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 41 - 31 = 10% [ANSWER, OPTION A]
***********************
B)
B. There do not appear to be any outliers [ANSWER, OPTION B]
[Usually, outliers are marked with x or *, and we cannot see it here.]
