Interpret the box plots of sepal length for the three iris flower species: setosa, versicolor, and virginica.
Understand the Problem
The question is likely related to interpreting the box plots of sepal length for three different iris flower species. It may involve understanding statistical values such as median, quartiles, and potential outliers represented in the box plots.
Answer
Setosa: shortest sepal length. Versicolor: intermediate. Virginica: longest sepal length with an outlier.
The box plot shows that Iris setosa has the shortest median sepal length, followed by Iris versicolor, and then Iris virginica, which has the longest median sepal length. The spread of sepal lengths increases from setosa to virginica. There is an outlier in the virginica species.
Answer for screen readers
The box plot shows that Iris setosa has the shortest median sepal length, followed by Iris versicolor, and then Iris virginica, which has the longest median sepal length. The spread of sepal lengths increases from setosa to virginica. There is an outlier in the virginica species.
More Information
Box plots visually display the distribution of data and are useful in identifying medians, ranges, interquartile ranges, and outliers.
Tips
Common mistakes include confusing the quartiles with the range and not correctly identifying outliers.
