jacob is practicing the 100 meter dash. the data show his times in seconds. 14, 13, 13.5, 16, 14, 15.5, 14.5…

Explanation:

Step1: Arrange data in ascending order

$13, 13.5, 14, 14, 14.5, 15.5, 16$

Step2: Find the median (Q2)

Since there are 7 data - points, the median is the 4th value. So, $Q2 = 14$.

Step3: Find the lower half of data

The lower half is $13, 13.5, 14$. The median of the lower half (Q1) is 13.5.

Step4: Find the upper half of data

The upper half is $14.5, 15.5, 16$. The median of the upper half (Q3) is 15.5.

Step5: Identify the minimum and maximum

The minimum value is 13 and the maximum value is 16.

The box - plot should have the minimum at 13, Q1 at 13.5, Q2 at 14, Q3 at 15.5, and the maximum at 16.

Answer:

The box - plot that has the left - most point at 13, the left edge of the box at 13.5, the line inside the box at 14, the right edge of the box at 15.5, and the right - most point at 16. (Since no specific labels for the box - plots are given, you would need to visually identify the one that matches these values among the options provided in the image).
