Respuesta :

You have multiple questions here. I can help you with the first one.

To compare the groups, we can find the mean. To find the mean of each group, add up the values and divide by 5.

Team A: 355 / 5 = 71
Team B: 350 / 5 = 70 

You can also look at the median of each group. That is the middle number.

Team A: 67 68 70 74 76
Team B: 64 65 68 75 78

In both cases, Team A is taller. You could say that Team A has a taller team.

Answer: The actual correct answer was for question 1, The range in heights for Team B is greater than the range in heights for Team B.
