Suppose the data represent the inches of rainfall in April for a certain city over the course of 20 years. (a) Determine the quartiles (b) Compute the interquartile range, IQR. (c) Determine the lower and upper fences. Are there any outliers, according to this criterion? (a) What are the quartiles? (Round to three decimal places as needed.) (Round to three decimal places as needed.) Round to three decimal places as needed.) (b) IQR = Round to three decimal places as needed.) (c) The lower fence is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) The upper fence is (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Solution
excel is used for the analysis.
Q1=1.846
Q2=3.495
Q3=4.955
b) IQR=3.108
c) upper frnce is Q3+1.5*IQR=9.6163
The lower fence is Q1-1.5*IQR=-2.8137
No all the values are between the upper and lower fences.
There are no outliers.
