a. Develop a box plot of the variable price and comment on the result. Are there any out- liers? What is the median price? What is the value of the first and the third quartile?
b. Develop a box plot of the variable size and comment on the result. Are there any out- liers? What is the median price? What is the value of the first and the third quartile?
c. Develop a scatter diagram between the variables price and size. Be sure to put price on the vertical axis and size on the horizontal axis. Does there seem to be an asso- ciation between the two variables? Is the association direct or indirect? Does any point seem to be different from the others?
d. Develop a contingency table for the variables shape and cut grade. What is the most common cut grade? What is the most common shape? What is the most common combination of cut grade and shape?
