The low temperatures in two cities are being compared. In City 1, the range in temperature is 20°F and the IQR is 7°F.

In City 2, the range in temperature is 15°F and the IQR is 7°F.
What might you conclude about the cities based on the ranges and interquartile ranges?

B.The weather pattern in City 2 is more consistent than the weather pattern in City 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Range and interquartile range (IQR) measures the spread of data. Range measure the overall spread and IQR measures spread in 50% of data.

Range is calculated by differencevof maximum and minimum value whereas IQR is calculated by difference of First quartile and third quartile.

Since, the range and IQR is less for City 2 as compared to City 1.

Thus ,weather pattern of City 2 is more consistent as compared to City 1.
