  1. A data set has Q1 = 15 and Q3 = 35. Which value would be considered an outlier using the 1.5 × IQR rule?

    Answer: 70

    IQR = 20; upper fence = 35 + 30 = 65, so 70 exceeds the fence and is an outlier.

  2. A set of test scores has a range of 45. What does the range tell you?

    Answer: The spread between the highest and lowest scores

    Range = maximum − minimum, so it describes the total spread of the data set.

  3. In a stem-and-leaf plot, the stem 4 has leaves 1, 3, 7. What values do these represent?

    Answer: 41, 43, 47

    In a stem-and-leaf plot, each leaf is combined with its stem: 4|1 = 41, 4|3 = 43, 4|7 = 47.

  4. A student records daily high temperatures for a week: 72, 75, 68, 80, 72, 79, 72. What is the mode?

    Answer: 72

    72 appears three times, more than any other value, making it the mode.

  5. A circle graph (pie chart) shows that 30% of students prefer math. If there are 400 students total, how many prefer math?

    Answer: 120

    30% of 400 = 0.30 × 400 = 120 students prefer math.

  6. Which of the following best describes a negative correlation in a scatter plot?

    Answer: As x increases, y decreases

    A negative correlation means that as one variable increases, the other variable tends to decrease.

  7. A bag contains 5 red, 3 blue, and 2 green marbles. If the results of 50 draws (with replacement) are displayed in a bar graph, what should the bar for red be closest to?

    Answer: 25

    Red marbles make up 5/10 = 50% of the bag, so in 50 draws the expected count is 25.
