Respuesta :

We have been given two box plots representing attendance at a local movie theater and high school basketball games. WE are asked to choose the correct option about the measure the spread of the data represented by box plots.

Since we know that Standard deviation is not a good measure of spread in highly skewed data. IQR is better measure of spread for highly skewed data.

We can see that box plot representing attendance at movies is right skewed, therefore, mean will be greater than median and  SD will not be a good measure of spread.

Box plot representing basket-ball games attendance is left skewed left,therefore, mean will be less than median and SD will not be a good measure of spread.

Our both box plots are highly skewed, therefore, the IQR is the best measurement of spread for games and movies and option C is the correct choice.



The IQR is the best measurement of spread for games and movies and option C is the correct choice.

What do you mean by standard deviation?

In statistics, Standard deviation is a measure of the variation of a set of values.

σ = standard deviation of the  population

N = number of observations of population

X = mean

μ = population mean

It is given that two box plots represent attendance at a local movie theater and high school basketball games. we need to choose the correct option the measure the spread of the data represented by box plots.

Since we know that Standard deviation is not a good measure of spread in highly skewed data. IQR is a better measure of spread for highly skewed data.

The box plot representing attendance at movies is right-skewed,

therefore, the mean will be greater than the median and  SD will not be a good measure of spread.

Box plot representing basketball games attendance is left-skewed left,

therefore, the mean will be less than the median and SD will not be a good measure of spread.

Both box plots are highly skewed, therefore, the IQR is the best measurement of spread for games and movies and option C is the correct choice.
