Beyond the Answer
To identify outliers in the given data set of laps completed by the swim team members, we can use the interquartile range (IQR). 1. First, we arrange the data in ascending order: \[ 76, 76, 78, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 87, 90 \] 2. Determine the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3). - Q1 (25th percentile) is the median of the first half of the data: \( 78 \) (the average of 76 and 80). - Q3 (75th percentile) is the median of the second half of the data: \( 85 \) (the average of 84 and 87). 3. Calculate the IQR: \[ IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 85 - 78 = 7 \] 4. Determine the lower and upper bounds for outliers: - Lower Bound = Q1 - 1.5 * IQR = \( 78 - 1.5 \times 7 = 78 - 10.5 = 67.5 \) - Upper Bound = Q3 + 1.5 * IQR = \( 85 + 1.5 \times 7 = 85 + 10.5 = 95.5 \) 5. Any values below 67.5 or above 95.5 are considered outliers. Looking at the laps completed, the values are: \[ 76, 76, 78, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 87, 90 \] None of these values fall below 67.5 or above 95.5. Therefore, there are no outliers.
