The two dot plots below compare the forearm lengths of two groups of schoolchildren:

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Group A, because seven children have a forearm length longer than 10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Create the dot plots based on the given information (please see attached images).

Group A = blue dots

Group B = red dots

From inspection of the attached dot plots, we can see that Group A appears to have the longer average forearm length. This is because 7 children have a forearm length of longer than 10 inches.

To calculate the average forearm length, sum all data values and divide by the total number of data values.

$\textsf{Average of Group A}=\dfrac{ 3 \times 10 + 4 \times 11 + 3 \times 12}{10}=11$
