Question

Caleb is comparing the growth of plants using two different fertilizers

Part A use the measures of center from the box plots to make an inference about the data. Use the drop down menus to explain your answer

Part B use the box plots to make an inference using the variability of the data. Drag words to complete the statement. Words may be used once, more than once, or not at all.

Answer 1

Answer: Medians, Less

Part B Answer: Greater, Less

The range and IQR are greater

in Group B as compared to Group A, so there is less variability in the growth of plants in Group B.
