so basically you had to create a 5 number summary for each of the graphs. after doing that you’d find that they all the same summaries except for D, so it had to be D. why do you think it was C?
people are overthinking it...it's C because you can count the median on each graph (which is at place 8.5 on all 4 - all total to 16), but on C there is nothing for where the median is supposed to be. so it just doesn't work irrespective of the box plot

it's been confirmed
i didnt notice it was ai when i was in the exam tbh. i saw a lot of people complaining on reddit bcuz ai doesnt use visual technique and how can you analyse something not made by a human, but its a 6 mark compare question it really wasnt that hard to identify the techniques of the image. i think the actual issue is that its stealing from other artists and photographers. its going to be a weird legal issue where i highly doubt nesa will show the image when the paper gets uploaded to nesas site just to avoid lawsuits

I don’t think that’s how that works. Since there’s no value you just average the 8th and 9th value, that’s how medians work. i made box plots for C and D, and D is different. I already said that the five number summaries are all the same except for D, how can that be argued against when it directly affects the box plot?IMG_0696.jpegIMG_0695.jpeg

Exactly. 15 is C (8 in advanced). The people who selected D honestly deserved to get it wrong for trying to be a "smartass". Like I'm pretty sure question 15 (question 8 for advanced) is an iq question. If you got that wrong, your iq is definitely below 100 (no offense). IQ questions normally ask you to find the odd one out just like this. I hope NESA doesn't award the people who selected D, it's clearly possible the boxplot can look like that. Legit I just spent 30 minutes making data sets based of this and I could literally sketch a full fledged normally distributed box and whisker plot.

Being so loud and wrong is hilarious.
