Here is a list of the normal monthly precipitation (in inches) for January for 20 different U.S. cities. 4.0, 1.0, 1.5, 1.6, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.7, 3.4, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.6, 3.7, 3.7, 3.9, 4.1, 5.8, 4.1, 7.3 Find the Five-Number-Summary. (Hint: Think back to Chapter Three!)

Answer :

Answer:

minimum value = 1.0 , the lower quartile = 2.3, the middle value = 3.5.

the upper quartile = 3.95, the maximum value  = 7.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Five Number Summary of any data consists basically of 5 data sets.

1) The minimum Value

2)The first (lower) quartile

3) The middle value (Median)

4) The third (upper) quartile

5)The maximum value

Now, the given data is  4.0, 1.0, 1.5, 1.6, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.7, 3.4, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.6, 3.7, 3.7, 3.9, 4.1, 5.8, 4.1, 7.3

Arrange it in the ascending order,

1.0, 1.5, 1.6, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.7, 3.4, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.6, 3.7, 3.7, 3.9, 4.0, 4.1, 4.1, 5.8, 7.3

Here,

1) The minimum Value  is 1.0

2)The first (lower) quartile  is  2.3.

3) The middle value (Median)  is 3.5.

4) The third (upper) quartile is  3.95.

5)The maximum value  is 7.3.
