Question

question 3 (1 point) four amateur miniature golfers attempt to finish 100 holes under par several times. each round of 100, the number of holes they successfully complete under par is recorded. due to the presence of extreme values, box plots were determined to be the best representation for the data. list the four box plots in order of variability from least to greatest. 1. player a 40 43 46 49 52 55 58 61 64 67 70 number of holes completed under par 2. player d 40 43 46 49 52 55 58 61 64 67 70 number of holes completed under par 3. player b 40 43 46 49 52 55 58 61 64 67 70 number of holes completed under par 4. player c 40 43 46 49 52 55 58 61 64 67 70 number of holes completed under par

Explanation:

Step1: Recall variability measure in box - plots

The inter - quartile range (IQR) and the length of the whiskers represent variability in a box - plot. A smaller IQR and shorter whiskers mean less variability.

Step2: Compare box - plots visually

Player a has a relatively short box (small IQR) and short whiskers. Player c also has a short box and short whiskers, similar to player a. Player d has a longer box and longer whiskers compared to a and c. Player b has the longest box and longest whiskers among them.

Answer:

Player a, Player c, Player d, Player b
