Question
Under each boxplot, write a comment about the presence or absence of any outliers (for example, there are __number of outliers or there are no outliers in the ________data)
Transcribed Image Text:The image contains two boxplots:
1. **Boxplot of Students Predicted GPA:**
- **Title:** Boxplot of Students Predicted GPA
- **Y-Axis:** Predicted GPA
- **Range:** Approximately 2.4 to 3.1
- **Median:** Around 2.65
- **Interquartile Range (IQR):** The box extends from about 2.55 to 2.85
- **Whiskers:** Extend slightly to cover the range from approximately 2.4 to 3.0
- **Outliers:** There is an evident outlier above the third quartile around 2.95.
2. **Boxplot of Students College GPA:**
- **Title:** Boxplot of Students College GPA
- **Y-Axis:** College GPA
- **Range:** Approximately 2.0 to 3.6
- **Median:** Around 2.8
- **Interquartile Range (IQR):** The box extends from about 2.65 to 3.1
- **Whiskers:** Extend to cover a wider range from approximately 2.2 to 3.5
- **Outliers:** No clear outliers are noted beyond the whiskers.
### Interpretation:
Boxplots are utilized to depict the distribution of data based on a five-number summary: minimum, first quartile (Q1), median, third quartile (Q3), and maximum. They are especially useful for identifying outliers. In this comparison:
- The **Predicted GPA** tends to be slightly lower than the actual **College GPA** as seen in the boxplots.
- There is more variability in the actual **College GPA** data, indicated by a wider interquartile range and longer whiskers, suggesting greater spread in student performance.
- The predicted data may have used a model or historical data to forecast student performance, which showed a tighter range of prediction outcomes with a single identified outlier.
