based on the data set, complete the boxplot below for the number of minutes curtis spent on math homework.

Explanation:

Step1: Sort the data set

$0,4,5,11,13,15,15,18,19,20,22,24,27$

Step2: Find the median (Q2)

There are 13 data - points. The median is the 7th value. So, Q2 = 15.

Step3: Find the lower half of the data

The lower half is $0,4,5,11,13,15$. The median of the lower half (Q1) is the 3rd value, so Q1 = 5.

Step4: Find the upper half of the data

The upper half is $18,19,20,22,24,27$. The median of the upper half (Q3) is the 3rd value of this half, so Q3 = 20.

Step5: Identify the minimum and maximum

The minimum is 0 and the maximum is 27.
