  1. A scatter plot shows points clustered tightly around a line that goes from the lower-left to the upper-right. What does this indicate?

  5. A box plot's interquartile range (IQR) is the distance between which two values?

    Answer: Q1 and Q3

    The IQR is Q3 minus Q1, representing the spread of the middle 50% of the data.

  6. The following scores were recorded: 55, 60, 62, 65, 90. Which measure is most affected by the score of 90?

    Answer: Mean

    The mean is pulled toward extreme values (outliers), making it the measure most affected by the score of 90.
