Answer:

Option C is correct.

Both cities have about the same percentage. of households with annual incomes above $80,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The boxplot to read answers from, seem to be missing. On checking the question online, the boxplot for the question was obtained.

This boxplot is attached to the solution of this question.

On the boxplots, it is evident that the two cities have an average of $80000 because the line in the middle of boxplots point out the median. And boxplots only show the spread of data over a range, since the median for the two cities are both $80000, the percentage of households with income greater than $80000 in both cities is the same and that percentage is roughly 50% in each of the two cities.
