Answer:

I'm not sure what a box plot is, but I'll just assume it's a box-and-whisker plot. I've attached it above.

Arrange the number in ascending order and find out what is the minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile and maximum number.

A. I'm sorry I don't understand the question :(

B. Interquartile Range(IQR) = Upper quartile- lower quartile

Hence, IQR= 30-16 = 14

C. 2 weeks, 33 hours for both weeks.

This is because upper quartile is 30 hours.

D. 21 hours.

Mean= Total number of hours ÷ number of weeks

Hence, mean = 254/11 = 23.1 hours (3 s.f.)

Comparing the mean and median to the typical work week, they are lesser since 21 and 23.1 are both lesser than 29 hours.
