What do the box plots tell you about the growth of a typical plant species?

• B typically grows taller than A since the range for B is greater.

• B typically grows taller than A since the IQR for B is greater.

• A grows taller than B since the median for A is greater.

• A typically grows taller than B since the mean for A is greater.

Compare the variability of the data for each store.

• The range & IQR are greater at store B as compared to store A.

• There is less variability in prices of DVD players at store A.

• The range & IQR are greater at store A as compared to store B.

• There is more variability in prices of DVD players at store B.

A student wants to know which type of pizza the students at his high school prefer. Which option would give an unbiased, representative sample:

• Asking all the students in the hot lunch line.

• Asking 10 random students from each homeroom.

• Asking every other student who gets off a school bus.

• Asking all the 10th graders.

In order to use samples to estimate something from the population, the sample should be _________________ the population.

There are 400 students at Polly's school. She surveyed a random sample of 80 students to find their favorite hobby. 19 said they like to read. 30 said they like to be with friends. 8 said they like to do crafts. 23 said they like to play sports. Polly infers that doing crafts is the least popular hobby at her school. Refer to the data table. Polly surveys two more samples. Do the results from these samples support the inference made from the first sample?

• Yes, the survey results support the inference that doing crafts is the least popular hobby at Polly's school.

• No, the survey results does not support the inference that doing crafts is the least popular hobby at Polly's school.

The two data sets show the number of days that team members trained before a 5k race. What inference can you draw by comparing the median?

• There is more variability in the number of days that Team A members trained because the IQR for Team A is greater than the IQR for Team B.

• There is more variability in the number of days that Team B members trained because the IQR for Team B is greater than the IQR for Team A.

• Team A members generally trained for more days than Team B members

• Team B members generally trained for more days than Team A members

What inference can you draw by comparing the interquartile ranges?

• There is more variability in the number of days that Team A members trained because the IQR for Team A is greater than the IQR for Team B.

• There is more variability in the number of days that Team B members trained because the IQR for Team B is greater than the IQR for Team A.

• Team A members generally trained for more days than Team B members

• Team B members generally trained for more days than Team A members
