The minimum and median values of a box plot are typically identified based on the following aspects:
- The minimum value is the smallest data point in the dataset.
- The median value (Q2) is the middle point of the dataset, where 50% of the data lies below it and 50% lies above it.
Since we don't have a visual representation of a specific box plot, I can only describe the process of identifying these values. The minimum value is generally the lowest point at the left end of the box plot's whiskers, and the median is the line inside the box that divides the box into two equal halves.
If the question comes with multiple-choice answers, the answer would be correct if it matches the minimum value and the median value extracted from the box plot data. Let's assume you need to select from the given options without a specific box plot:
- The correct answer would be the pair where the first number is the smallest value and the second number is the middle (median) value:
- 67 and 77
- 72 and 80
- 64 and 72
- 64 and 80
Based on common sense and typical values, it's most likely that the correct answer would be the one with the minimum first and a reasonable median second. Given no box plot to analyze directly and relying on the provided options, "64 and 80" includes the smallest available value and a plausible high-end median, but the typically correct choice based on standard sets may vary.
Without the actual box plot data, it is difficult to provide a definitive choice. However, assuming standard values:
- The answer "67 and 77" might be appropriate for a more moderate dataset.
- The answer "64 and 80" could be correct for a dataset with a wider range and more variance.
Select based on the context and the pattern typically used in your data sets.
