How does a box-plot shows the data points?
A box plot has 5 data description.
- The leftmost whisker shows the minimum value in the data.
- The rightmost whisker shows the maximum value in the data.
- The leftmost line in the box shows the first quartile.
- The middle line shows the median, also called second quartile.
- The last line of the box shows the third quartile.
For all the box-plots plotted in the image attached, we can see that only the first box plot is such that the amount $18.75 is falling inside the box's boundaries.
The box is contained with more likely elements than those which are outside of it. It is because, the box contains those elements which are between first and third quartile. Since the selection was done randomly, so mean, median and mode all lie approximately on the same point due to the distribution tending to normal distribution(sample size is large enough (50 > 30, a needed sample size for consideration of that sample belonging from normal distribution)). Now, for the first graph, the median is closest to $18.75, and the more close a value is to center of a normal distribution, the more probable it is.
That's why, the store a person MOST LIKELY pay $18.75 for a pair of shoes from is given by: Option A: Store A
