Question 28
The partially completed box plot shows the distribution of average temperatures at Heathrow in 2015.
An outlier is defined as a value more than 1.5×IQR1.5 \times \text{IQR}1.5×IQR below Q1 Q_1\,Q1 or more than 1.5×IQR1.5 \times \text{IQR}1.5×IQR above Q3Q_3Q3. The lowest temperature was 8∘C8^\circ\text{C}8∘C and the highest two temperatures were 23∘C23^\circ\text{C}23∘C and k∘Ck^\circ\text{C}k∘C, where 26<k<2926<k<2926<k<29.
Complete the box plot in terms of kkk, showing clearly any outliers.
