The box plots show attendance at a local movie theater and high school basketball games: two bar graphs shown. The top one is labeled Movies. Minimum at 130, Q1 at 162, median at 185, Q3 at 195, maximum at 290. The bottom bar graph is labeled Basketball games. Minimum at 85, Q1 at 170, median at 200, Q3 at 225, maximum at 230. Which of the following best describes how to measure the spread of the data? The IQR is a better measure of spread for movies than it is for basketball games. The standard deviation is a better measure of spread for movies than it is for basketball games. The IQR is the best measurement of spread for games and movies. The standard deviation is the best measurement of spread for games and movies.

For the 1st one, why do you think it's a?

OpenStudy (help_people):

because it is a strue statement

OpenStudy (help_people):

wait is it d @Data_LG2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well I'm not sure if IQR is the best choice. Not sure though. But I think the best measurement for both of them is the standard deviation.

OpenStudy (help_people):

ok but the second one is right

OpenStudy (help_people):

wait for the first one d is correct?

Male and female high school students reported how many hours they worked each week in summer jobs. The data is represented in the following box plots: two bar graphs shown. The top one is labeled Males. Minimum at 1, Q1 at 3, median at 10.5, Q3 at 24, maximum at 21. The bottom bar graph is labeled Females. Minimum at 0, Q1 at 15, median at 18, Q3 at 21, no maximum shown Identify any values of data that might affect the statistical measures of spread and center. The females worked more than the males, and the female Q3 equals the top of the range. The spread and center are skewed due to the fourth quartile missing with the females. There is a significant outlier at the low end for the females. The males have a high outlier, and the females have a low outlier.

wait, as I've said before, I'm not 100% sure that's why I'm asking your reasons behind your answers. Also, is this some kind of quiz or test?

OpenStudy (help_people):

no @Data_LG2

OpenStudy (help_people):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
