Which statement correctly compares the spreads of the distributions?

b. the ranges of penguin heights are the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Statements:

Which statement correctly compares the spreads of the distributions?

a. the mode of penguin heights at county side zoo is greater than  the mode at city view zoo.

b. the ranges of penguin heights are the same.

c. the range of penguin heights is greater at city view zoo than at  county side zoo.

d. the range of penguin heights is greater at county side zoo than at  city view zoo.

The mode and mean are measurements of central tendency, these indicate the position of a data set but don't show any information concerning the distribution of said data.

The range on the other had is a measurement of variance, it shows the difference between the maximum and minimum values of the data set and indicates its total dispersion.

City view Zoo R= 44-37= 7 cm

County side Zoo: R= 45-38= 7 cm

Both ranges are the same.

I hope this helps!

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
