Copy the image below onto a piece of paper. Draw a boxplot of each of the sets of data.  Put the boxplots one on top of the other…stacked boxplots… so that you can easily compare the 2 sets of sample data.  In the answer box below, respond to the following questions using numbers: a) Where is the end of the left whisker for the height for sweet snacks? b) Where is the left side of the box for the height for sweet snacks? c) Where is the line down the middle of the box for the height for sweet snacks? d) Where is the right side of the box for the height for sweet snacks? e) Where is the end of the right whisker for the height for sweet snacks? f) Where is the end of the left whisker for the height for salty snacks? g) Where is the left side of the box for the height for salty snacks? h) Where is the line down the middle of the box for the height for salty snacks? j) Where is the right side of the box for the height for salty snacks? k) Where is the end of the right whisker for the height for salty snacks? m) Are there any other parts to the boxplots?  If so, what are they, and where are they located?
