3-3 Measures of Relative Standing and Boxplots 129 FIGURE 3-9 Boxplots of Disney Wait Times at 10 AM YOUR TURN. Do Exercise 33 “Pulse Rates.” Now refer to Figure 3-10 for three examples of histograms and their corresponding boxplots. FIGURE 3-10 Histograms and Corresponding Boxplots Skewed: The first case of the skewed histogram shows the boxplot as being lopsided. Normal: The second case of a normal distribution shows the boxplot as being symmetric. Uniform: The third case of a uniform distribution shows the boxplot as being symmetric. From the second and third cases, we see that a boxplot gives us information about the symmetry of data, but it does not reveal the shape of the distribution.
