Answer:
The given option is A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting and end point of box plot represent the minimum and maximum value respectively. Box starts from the first quartile to the third quartile. A vertical line goes through the box at the median.
From the given box plot we can say that
Minimum value = 1
Maximum value = 10
[tex]Q_1=2[/tex]
[tex]Q_2=Median=3[/tex]
[tex]Q_3=6[/tex]
The set of data in option A is
3, 1, 2, 6, 2, 2, 1, 10, 5, 6, 7
Arrange the data in ascending order.
1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 5, 6, 6, 7, 10
Divide the data in 4 equal parts.
(1, 1), 2,( 2, 2,) 3, (5, 6), 6, (7, 10)
Minimum value = 1
Maximum value = 10
[tex]Q_1=2[/tex]
[tex]Q_2=Median=3[/tex]
[tex]Q_3=6[/tex]
Data in option A fits the box and whisker plot.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
