The following data represent weights in kilograms of corn harvest from a random sample of 72 experimental plots in a farm somewhere in northern Cebu. For convenience, the data are presented in increasing order. 7.8 9.1 9.5 10.0 10.2 10.5 11.1 11.5 11.7 11.8 12.2 12.2 12.5 13.1 13.5 13.7 13.7 14.0 14.4 14.5 14.6 15.2 15.5 16.0 16.0 16.1 16.5 17.2 17.8 18.2 19.0 19.1 19.3 19.8 20.0 20.2 20.3 20.5 20.9 21.1 21.4 21.8 22.0 22.0 22.4 22.5 22.5 22.8 22.8 23.1 23.1 23.2 23.7 23.8 23.8 23.8 23.8 24.0 24.1 24.1 24.5 24.5 24.9 25.1 25.2 25.5 26.1 26.4 26.5 26.7 27.1 29.5 a. Compute the five- number summary b. Compute the interquartile range c. Make a.box-and-whiker plot.
