The box plot shows the heights of grade 7 students in two random samples from two different schools.
The sample item from each school is 30% of the student population
Heights of Grade 7 Students
School A
School B
52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66
Height
(inches)
Based on the box plot, which comparison is true?
A
Grade 7 students from School A are typically shorter than grade 7 students from School B because of the
difference in the interquartile ranges of grade 7 student heights at the schools.
B
Grade 7 students from School A are typically shorter than grade 7 students from School B because of the
difference in the medians of grade 7 student heights at the schools.
C Grade 7 students from School A are typically taller than grade 7 students from School B because of the
difference in the interquartile ranges of grade 7 student heights at the schools.
D Grade 7 students from School A are typically taller than grade 7 students from School B because of the
difference in the medians of grade 7 student heights at the schools.
