Martina chose a random sample of 10 bags of candy from two different Brands, A and B. All bags in the sample are the same size. Martina counts the number of candy pieces in each bag and plots the results on two dot plots. A dot plot is shown. The title of the plot is Brand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Based on the plots, which statement is a valid comparison of the number of candies in the bags of the two Brands?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you show us the plots?

Are there answer choices

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The number of candies in the bags from Brand B is greater and more consistent than the number of candies in the bags from Brand A. B. The number of candies in the bags from Brand B is greater and less consistent than the number of candies in the bags from Brand A. C. The number of candies in the bags from Brand B is fewer and more consistent than the number of candies in the bags from Brand A. D. The number of candies in the bags from brand B is fewer and less consistent than the number of candies in the bags from brand A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And is there a picture of Brand B's plot?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes one sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Answer choice B. The Number of candies in brand A is more consistent than Brand B, and Brand B has more.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you sure and why

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you add up the numbers, Brand B has more, but the plots are further away from eachother. In Brand A, there are fewer candies, but the plots are closer together.

oh ok I get it well thank you so much here a medal :)
