(a) Find the mean, median, range, standard deviation, and quartiles for both the depth and magnitude of the earthquakes. Based on the values of the mean, median, and quartiles conjecture the shape of the distribution for depth and magnitude.
(b) Draw a relative frequency histogram for both depth and magnitude. Label the mean and median on the histogram. Describe the shape of each histogram.
(c) Draw a boxplot for both depth and magnitude. Are there outliers?
(d) Determine the lower and upper fences for identifying outliers for both depth and magnitude.
