What does this comparison tell you in terms of the situation the data represent?

Answer 1

Given

To find:

a) The median of each data set.

b) Compare the median values of the data sets.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

a) From the above figure.

The median of the data set X is 13, and the median of the data set Y is 16.

b) Also,

The median of the data set X is less than the median of the data set Y.

That implies, the brand Y has a battery life that lasts longer than brand X.
