Question

An equal number of students from two Algebra 1 classes at Bozeman School were randomly selected and asked how many hours per week they spend studying algebra.
The class with the largest median for hours spent studying is
-Mrs. Castro’s class
-Mr. Philippe’s class
-The medians are the same

The class with the largest range of hours spent studying is
-Mrs. Castro’s class
-Mr. Philippe’s class
-The ranges are the same

The class with the largest IQR for hours spent studying is
-Mrs. Castro’s class
-Mr. Philippe’s class
-The IQRs are the same

Answer 1

Answer:

Largest Median: Same

Largest Range: Castro

Largest IQR: Castro

Step-by-step explanation:

With a box-and-whisker plot, the box represents the upper and lower quartiles, the vertical line inside the box represents the median, and the lines on either side of the box show the high and low of the range.

Largest Median: Medians are the same because the verticle line inside the boxes is at 7 for both

Largest Range: Ms Castro's Class- the lines on either side of the box for Ms Castro go from 1-10 while the other class only goes from 4-10.

Largest IQR (interquartile range) Ms. Castro's class: their IQR goes from 5-8 while the other class only goes from 6-8
