Part A: To calculate the measures of center, we need to find the median and mean for each school. Bay Side School: To find the median, we need to first order the data from smallest to largest: 0, 0, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 8, 8, 25, 30, 43, 50 The median is the middle value, which is 6. To find the mean, we need to add up all the values and divide by the total number of values: (8+6+50+5+8+43+25+30+20+4+2+5+3+2+0)/15 = 14.6 Seaside School: To find the median, we need to first order the data from smallest to largest: 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 24 The median is the middle value, which is 6.5. To find the mean, we need to add up all the values and divide by the total number of values: (0+1+2+5+6+8+5+5+7+7+8+3+0+6+24)/15 = 6.33 Part B: To calculate the measures of variability, we need to find the range and interquartile range for each school. Bay Side School: The range is the difference between the largest and smallest values: 50 - 0 = 50 To find the interquartile range, we need to first find the first and third quartiles. The median splits the data into two halves, and the first quartile (Q1) is the median of the lower half, while the third quartile (Q3) is the median of the upper half. Q1 = (2 + 3)/2 = 2.5 Q3 = (25 + 30)/2 = 27.5 The interquartile range is the difference between Q3 and Q1: 27.5 - 2.5 = 25 Seaside School: The range is the difference between the largest and smallest values: 24 - 0 = 24 To find the interquartile range, we need to first find the first and third quartiles. Q1 = (2 + 5)/2 = 3.5 Q3 = (7 + 8)/2 = 7.5 The interquartile range is the difference between Q3 and Q1: 7.5 - 3.5 = 4 Part C: If you are interested in a smaller class size, Seaside School would be the better choice as it has a smaller range and interquartile range compared to Bay Side School. This suggests that the class sizes are more consistent and less variable at Seaside School.

Thats from brainly

maths89898:

U think I wouldnt look that up??

KyledaGreat:

That’s nowhere on Brainly, I got it mysefl

KyledaGreat:

Myself

maths89898:

liar

maths89898:

u gotta be smart smart for that

KyledaGreat:

Look at my answer here and see the answer u see on Brainly, you’ll see the difference cause I know what u talkin. Look before assuming I copied an answer

maths89898:

let me check

maths89898:

thats gotta be copied

maths89898:

there are no 50s in the plot

KyledaGreat:

I’m telling you it’s not

maths89898:

where'd you get the number 50 from then

KyledaGreat:

Oh sorry my mistake, I apologize for the mistake. I mistakenly included the value of 50 in the Bay Side School data, which was not in the original stem-and-leaf plot provided in the question. Here is a revised and accurate answer:

KyledaGreat:

Do you still want it or

KyledaGreat:

No

maths89898:

yes

maths89898:

if u did this urself u gotta be smart af

KyledaGreat:

I have my ways, that’s all ima tell u

Part A: To calculate the measures of center, we need to find the median and mean for each school. Bay Side School: To find the median, we need to first order the data from smallest to largest: 0, 0, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 8, 8, 20, 25, 30, 43 The median is the middle value, which is 6. To find the mean, we need to add up all the values and divide by the total number of values: (8+6+5+8+20+4+2+5+3+2+0+5+3+2+0)/15 = 4.6 Seaside School: To find the median, we need to first order the data from smallest to largest: 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 24 The median is the middle value, which is 6.5. To find the mean, we need to add up all the values and divide by the total number of values: (0+1+2+5+6+8+5+5+7+7+8+3+0+6+24)/15 = 6.33 Part B: To calculate the measures of variability, we need to find the range and interquartile range for each school. Bay Side School: The range is the difference between the largest and smallest values: 43 - 0 = 43 To find the interquartile range, we need to first find the first and third quartiles. The median splits the data into two halves, and the first quartile (Q1) is the median of the lower half, while the third quartile (Q3) is the median of the upper half. Q1 = (2 + 3)/2 = 2.5 Q3 = (20 + 25)/2 = 22.5 The interquartile range is the difference between Q3 and Q1: 22.5 - 2.5 = 20 Seaside School: The range is the difference between the largest and smallest values: 24 - 0 = 24 To find the interquartile range, we need to first find the first and third quartiles. Q1 = (2 + 5)/2 = 3.5 Q3 = (7 + 8)/2 = 7.5 The interquartile range is the difference between Q3 and Q1: 7.5 - 3.5 = 4 Part C: If you are interested in smaller class sizes, Seaside School would be the better choice based on the given data. Seaside School has a smaller range and interquartile range compared to Bay Side School, suggesting that the class sizes are more consistent and less variable at Seaside School. However, it is important to note that class size is only one factor to consider when choosing a school, and other factors such as academic programs, extracurricular activities, and location should also be taken into account.

okay i trust u with this, if i get it wrong im gonna beat u up 😪

KyledaGreat:
