The five-number summary of a data set is given below.

Minimum: 3 Q1: 12 Median: 15 Q3: 16 Maximum: 20

Which of the following is a true statement about outliers for this distribution?

The distribution’s maximum is an outlier.
The distribution’s minimum is an outlier.
There are no outliers for this distribution.
Distribution outliers cannot be determined.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The distribution's minimum is an outlier.

Step-by-step explanation:

Interquartile range is Q3 - Q1 = 16 - 12 = 4

1.5 * IQR = 1.5*4 = 6

Q1 - 6 = 12 - 6 = 6

Q3 + 6 = 16+6 = 22.

Now 3 is outside the range 6-22 but 20 isn't so 3 is an outlier.
