Find the median, the first and third quartiles, and the interquartile range for the cost of admission: $\$ 13.95, \$ 24.59, \$ 19.99, \$ 29.98, \$ 23.95, \$ 28.99$.
\(\boxed{Q1 = 19.99, Q2 = 24.27, Q3 = 28.99, IQR = 9.00}\)
Step 1 :Sort the data in ascending order: \(13.95, 19.99, 23.95, 24.59, 28.99, 29.98\)
Step 2 :Find the first quartile (Q1): \(19.99\)
Step 3 :Find the median (Q2): \(\frac{23.95 + 24.59}{2} = 24.27\)
Step 4 :Find the third quartile (Q3): \(28.99\)
Step 5 :Calculate the interquartile range (IQR): \(28.99 - 19.99 = 9.00\)
Step 6 :\(\boxed{Q1 = 19.99, Q2 = 24.27, Q3 = 28.99, IQR = 9.00}\)
