Answer:

C. The interquartile range (IQR) for the Wolverines, 30, is less than the IQR for the Panthers, 40.

Explanation:

The interquartile Range (IQR) of a data describes or measures how spread out the data values are.

Thus, IQR = Q3 - Q1. which is the range of the rectangular box in the box plot given.

Thus,

IQR for the Wolverines = 85 - 55 = 30

IQR for the Panthers = 90 - 50 = 40

Therefore, comparing their spreads, the most appropriate statement is:

C. The interquartile range (IQR) for the Wolverines, 30, is less than the IQR for the Panthers, 40.
