Comparing Variability: Medians and Interquartile Ranges

This lesson teaches how to compare two data sets by examining their medians and interquartile ranges (IQRs). It explains the importance of medians and IQRs in understanding data variability, using the example of soccer and baseball player weights. The lesson includes visual data representations like histograms and box plots to illustrate the concepts. It concludes with a summary of findings, highlighting that while baseball players are generally heavier, soccer players show more variability in weight.

What were the ranges of weights for baseball and soccer players?

Summarize the findings regarding the medians and IQRs of soccer and baseball players.
