Ignacio kept a log of the amount of time he spent doing homework and watching television during 20 school days.

a. Draw two box plots, one showing the amount of time spent doing homework, and one showing the amount of time watching television. Which distribution has the greater spread?
b. Make an educated guess about the shape of a histogram for each set of data. Will either be skewed? Mound-shaped? Check your guess by drawing each histogram.
c. Calculate the median and inter-quartile range, and the mean and standard deviation, for both homework and television. Which measure of spread best represents the data?
