A clothing retailer is gathering data on the amount of time each customer spends shopping in its stores. Each location collected 20 pieces of data and will compile that data to determine a population mean. One location has a sample mean of 32.5. Which statement must be true about this situation?

A.
The population mean is also 32.5.
B.
There is not enough information to make a conclusion about the population mean.
C.
The population mean must be greater than 32.5.
D.
The population mean must be less than 32.5.

B

Step-by-step explanation:

see below

step-by-step explanation:

7.   there are 10 data points in the set.   the middle point is between 5 and 6.   the middle point in the top half is 8   and the middle point in the bottom half is 3. to find the iqr , take point 8 and subtract point 3

mid term   point 8 = 100   point 3 = 88

iqr = 100-88 = 12

final   point 8 = 93   point 3 = 78

iqr = 93 - 78 = 15

the final has the greatest iqr

6.   b - there is a high data value that causes the data set to be asymmetrical for the males: the data for males are high and asymmetrical .   there is an outlier for the males that skews the data

5.   the   iqr is a better measure of spread for the movies and basketball games.   since the basketball game has an outlier, we do not want to use standard deviation for measurement.  

3.   the exam median is much higher than the class median.   the median line is farther to the right on the exams

2.   there is no way to tell what the means are from the box and whisker plots.
