Two classes of students took an exam.

Here is a list of the scores in Class A:
65, 70, 70, 80, 80, 85, 85, 85, 90, 90, 100

Here is a box plot that shows the scores in Class B:
Box plot from 55 to 100 by 5’s. Whisker from 60 to 70. Box from 70 to 80 with vertical line at 75. Whisker from 80 to 90.

1. Which class had better overall results on the exam?
2. Which class had greater variability in the results?

Respuesta :

The class that had better overall results on the exam is class A.

The class with greater variablity in results is class B.

Which class performed better?

The statistics of students in class A:

Maximum score = 100

Minimum score = 65

Median = 85

First quartile = 1/4(n + 1) = 1/4 x 12 = 3rd term = 70

Third quartile = 3/4 x (n + 1) = 3/4 x 12 = 9th term = 90

The statistics of students in class B:

Maximum score = 100

Minimum score = 55

Median = 75

First quartile = 70

Third quartile = 80

Which class had greater variability in the results?

The range would be used to determine which class has greater variability.

Range = highest score  - lowest score

Class a = 100 - 65 = 35

Class B = 100 - 55 = 45
