Question

Kevin takes a survey of the ages of people in the library at 10 a.m. and at 6 p.m. on a Wednesday.


Kevin wants to give a talk at the library to new drivers on the dangers of texting and driving. Which statement best describes when Kevin should make the talk and why?

At 6 p.m., because the median age of the people in the library at that time is 17 (around the age of new drivers)

At 10 a.m., because the average age of someone in the library at that time is about 30

At 10 a.m., because there are more people with cars at the library at that time

At 6 p.m., because the range of ages for this data set is less than the range of ages for the 10 a.m. data set
