A variety of two types of snack packs are delivered to a store. The box plots compare the number of calories in each snack pack of crackers to the number of calories in each snack pack of trail mix. A number line goes from 65 to 115. Crackers' whiskers range from 70 to 100, and the box ranges from 75 to 85. A line divides the box at 80. Trail mix's whiskers range from 70 to 115, and the box ranges from 90 to 105. A line divides the box at 100. Which statement is true about the box plots? The interquartile range of the trail mix data is greater than the range of the cracker data. The value 70 is an outlier in the trail mix data. The upper quartile of the trail mix data is equal to the maximum value of the cracker data. The number of calories in the packs of trail mix has a greater variation than the number of calories in the packs of crackers.

A company that sells frozen pizza to stores in four markets in the United States​ (Denver, Baltimore,​ Dallas, and​ Chicago) wants to examine the prices that the stores charge for pizza slices. Boxplots are given comparing the data from a sample of stores in each market. The mean price of pizza in Baltimore was​ $2.85, $0.23 higher than the mean price of​ $2.62 in Dallas. To see if that difference was​ real, or due to​ chance, we took the 156 prices from Baltimore and Dallas and mixed those 312 prices together. Then we randomly chose 2 groups of 156 prices​ 10,000 times, and computed the difference in mean price each time. The histogram shows the distribution of those​ 10,000 differences. Use the accompanying histogram and boxplots to complete parts a through c below. ​b) Do you think the presence of the outliers in the accompanying boxplots affects your​ conclusion? A. ​Yes, the outliers balance out the difference in sample means and possibly hide an underlying difference. B. ​No, the outliers were ignored in the analysis so they do not affect the conclusion. C. ​No, the outliers lie fairly close to the minimum and maximum​ values, and only account for a small proportion of the observations. D. ​Yes, the outliers are going to be the most significant contribution to the difference in sample means.

00:01 Okay, so i see that you need help with this question, and it states that a variety of two types of snack packs are delivered to the store.
00:07 The box plot compares the number of calories of snack packs of crackers to the number of calories each snack pack of trail mix.
00:14 Which statement is true about the box plots? the interquartile range for the trail mix data is greater than the inter, is greater than the range for the cracker data mix.
00:31 So that is actually true.
00:34 The value 70 is an outlier for the trail mix data...
