A sample of 28 time-shares in the Orlando, Florida, area revealed the following daily charges for a one-bedroom suite. For convenience, the data are ordered from smallest to largest. Construct a box plot to represent the data.

Median = 253, lower Quartile = 219, Upper quartile = 301.5

Explanation:

Minimum = 116

Mean = 253 = mean is the average daily charge. It is calculated by taking the total sum  Of charges and divide it by the number of days.

Q1 = 219 = lower Quartile. Lower quartile represents the lower 25% of data

Q2 = 253= Median. Median represents the middle score/number. Median is used as a measure of central tendency of data.

Q3 = 301.5=Upper quartile. Upper Quartile represents 75% of data.

Maximum= 353  

The box and whisker graph is a graph that groups data into Quartiles.

The median is $253, that daily charge of $253 for the Bedroom suite Divides the data (Charges per day) into two halves namely the lower half and the upper half, $253 charge is in the middle.

The median is $253, The Lower quartile is $219 and the upper quartile 301.5, these values are painting a clear picture which shows us that that 75% of the Daily Charges for the Bedroom suite were about $219. The Box and Whisker Graph depicts that in most days the Charges were above $219 and higher, Hence the lower whisker is much longer than the upper whisker.  

The mean charge for one bedroom suite is equal to the median. The mean is also $253 meaning on average the cost of occupying the one bedroom suite was $253, with the Mean of $253 we can conclude that most daily charges for the bedroom suite are distributed around the mean of $253 hence the box and whisker graph is skewed towards the right side (the upper side) because with median of $253 already 50% of the daily charges are above $253
