Question 1
A box plot (or box - and - whisker plot) is designed to show the five - number summary of a dataset: minimum, first quartile (Q1), median (Q2), third quartile (Q3), and maximum. The third quartile is represented by the right - hand side of the box in a box plot. In contrast, a dot plot shows individual data points, and it is more difficult to directly identify the third quartile from a dot plot compared to a box plot.
A dot plot uses dots to represent the frequency of each data value. Each dot can represent one or more observations (days, in this case). By counting the number of dots corresponding to a particular high temperature value, we can find out how many days had that high temperature. A box plot is not designed to show the frequency of individual data values, it shows the spread and quartiles of the data.
