Question
The boxplot shows a data sample of the differences in the weight (g) of bee venom that was collected from each hive twice, once in the first half of the flowering season and again in the second half.
Answer the following questions about the centre, spread, shape and possible outliers for the boxplot:
a) Centre: What is the
b) Spread: What is the IQR? That is the width or length of the box
c) Shape: Is the median in the middle of the box? How is it skewed? Or is the median closer to one of the
d) And finally are there any outliers?
