Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Sort the Data
The data points are sorted in ascending order: [0.52, 0.57, 0.62, 0.81, 0.91, 1.07, 1.09, 1.17, 1.34, 1.37, 1.49]
Step 2: Find the Minimum and Maximum
The minimum value is 0.52 and the maximum value is 1.49.
Step 3: Calculate the Median (Q2)
The median (Q2) of the data set is 1.07.
Step 4: Determine the First Quartile (Q1)
The first quartile (Q1) of the data set is 0.62.
Step 5: Determine the Third Quartile (Q3)
The third quartile (Q3) of the data set is 1.34.
Final Answer:
The 5-number summary of the data set is: Minimum = 0.52, Q1 = 0.62, Median = 1.07, Q3 = 1.34, Maximum = 1.49.
