Note: You missed to add the dot plots chart. As I found the chart after a little research. Thus, I am attaching it and based on that dot plot chart I am solving the question which anyways would clear you concept.

Answer:

'There are about 2 more students in each class at Oak Middle School than at Poplar Middle School' is the correct statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, it is clear that

The data set containing Poplar Middle School:

20 20 20 21 21 21 21 21 22 22 22 22 22 22 22 23 23 23 23 24

The mean of a data set is the sum of the terms divided by the total number of terms. Using math notation we have:

$\mu = 435/20$

$=\frac{87}{4}$

$= 21.75$

The data set containing Oak Middle School:

20 21 21 22 22 23 23 23 23 24 24 24 25 25 26 26 27 27 28 29

The mean of a data set is the sum of the terms divided by the total number of terms. Using math notation we have:

$\mu = 483/20$

$=24.15$

So, the difference in mean will be:

$24.15 - 21.75 = 2.4$

Therefore, 'there are about 2 more students in each class at Oak Middle School than at Poplar Middle School' is the correct statement.

Mieko said that the difference between the longest rose and the shortest rose is 1 inch. Is she correct?

erastova [34]

Answer:

Mieko is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

The length difference

Lengths with dot(s) means, there is at least 1 rose flower of that length.

So, from the attachment, we have:

$Longest = 14.0$

$Shortest = 13.0$

The difference (d) is:

$d = Longest - Shortest$

This gives:

$d = 14.0 - 13.0$

$d = 1\ in$

<em>Hence, Mieko is correct</em>
