Q:

The table shows summary statistics for guests' ages at two parties.Party Median age (years) Range (years) 1 17 27 2 19 20Which conclusion is true?A. A typical guest at Party 1 was younger than a typical guest at Party 2, and guests' ages were more variable at Party 1 than at Party 2.B. A typical guest at Party 1 was younger than a typical guest at Party 2, and guests' ages were less variable at Party 1 than at Party 2.C. A typical guest at Party 1 was older than a typical guest at Party 2, and guests' ages were more variable at Party 1 than at Party 2.D.

Accepted Solution

A:
median age of 1 is 17, median age of 2 is 19 so the average age of party 1 is younger

the range of 1 is 27, the range of 2 is 20 so the range of 1 is larger, which means there is more variance
 the answer should be 

A. A typical guest at Party 1 was younger than a typical guest at Party 2, and guests' ages were more variable at Party 1 than at Party 2.
