The ranges of the points per game in the two data sets are: SOLUTION Eastern Conference: Range 8 = 94 – 102 = Western Conference: Range 19 = 89 – 108 = National Basketball Association Team Points Per Game 94, 94, 95, 96, 97, 97, 97, 98, 98, 98, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102 Eastern Conference 89, 90, 92, 92, 92, 93, 96, 97, 99, 99, 99, 99, 100, 103, 108 Western Conference

6. Example 3 Find Lower and Upper Quartiles Find the lower and upper quartile of each set of data. Lower quartile: The median of 10, 15, and 17 is 15. Upper quartile: The median of 18, 20, and 21 is 20. a. 10, 15, 17, 18, 20, 21 b. 31, 33, 33, 35, 36, 39, 40, 41, 41 The values are already in order. The median is between 17 and 18. Each half of the data has three items. SOLUTION a.

7. Example 3 Find Lower and Upper Quartiles Lower quartile: The median of 31, 33, 33, and 35 is 33. Upper quartile: The median of 39, 40, 41, and 41 is 40.5. The values are already in order. The median is 36. This value does not belong to either the upper half or the lower half of the data set. So, each half of the data has four items. b.

8. Checkpoint Find the range, median, lower quartile, and upper quartile of the data set. ANSWER range: 18 ; median: 20 ; lower quartile: 16 ; upper quartile: 24 Find Range, Median, and Lower and Upper Quartiles 2. 11, 15, 16, 16, 17, 20, 24, 24, 24, 27, 29 ANSWER range: 28 ; median: 56 ; lower quartile: 53 ; upper quartile: 67 3. 47, 50, 51, 55, 55, 55, 57, 63, 66, 68, 68, 75

9. Draw a Box-and-Whisker Plot Example 4 The two data sets below show the average number of points per game scored by the teams in the National Basketball Association during the 2005–2006 season. National Basketball Association Team Points Per Game 94, 94, 95, 96, 97, 97, 97, 98, 98, 98, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102 Eastern Conference 89, 90, 92, 92, 92, 93, 96, 97, 99, 99, 99, 99, 100, 103, 108 Western Conference Draw a box-and-whisker plot of the Eastern Conference data set above. How many points per game did Eastern Conference teams normally score in the 2005–2006 season?
