Question

The weights, in pounds, of the players of a professional basketball team are displayed in the box-and-whisker plot below.What is the interquartile range of the players' weights?

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the box-and-whisker plot, we have

$Min = 175\\ \\Q_1=200\\ \\Q_2\approx 218\\ \\Q_3=240\\ \\Max=280$

By the definition, the interquartile range is

$Q_3-Q_1$

In your case, the interquartile range is

$Q_3-Q_1=240-200=40$

So, the correct choice is option C.
