The FDA regulates that fish that are consumed should contain no more than 1.0 mg/kg of mercury. In Florida, bass fish were collected in 26 different lakes to measure the amount of mercury in the fish (in mg/kg) (Multi- disciplinary niser activity, 2013). The data for the average amount of mercury in the fish from each lake is in table below. Average Mercury Level in Lakes (mg/kg) 0.86 0.28 0.17 0.27 0.94 0.73 0.19 0.77 0.04 0.34 0.56 0.25 0.43 0.59 0.84 0.49 0.81 0.40 0.71 0.18 0.34 0.21 0.27 0.34 0.10 For the data shown above, find the following. Do not round any of your answers. The program here will take either answer. a) Find the 5-number summary: { What units would go on each of your answers above? b) Compute the IQR. Put your answer in the first box and the correct units in the second box. c) What is the lower fence for this data set? } What is the upper fence for this data set?
