Store 2 22, 27, 33, 36, 40

Which statements are true and supported by the data in the table? Check all that apply.
The data for store 1 shows greater variability.
The median number of hours worked for the two stores is the same.
The mean of the data for store 1 is greater than the mean of the data for store 2.
The interquartile range of both data sets is the same.
The range of the data for store 1 is less than the range of the data for store 2.

The correct options are;

1) The data for store 1 show greater variability

2) The mean of the data for store 1 is greater than the mean of the data for store 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

Hours worked in a week

Store 1

16, 28, 36, 40, 78

Store 2

22, 27, 33, 36, 40

Using an online application, we have;

For store 1

The range is 78 - 16 = 62

Mean  = 39.6

Standard deviation ≈ 20.88 (Higher variability)

Median = 36

Lower quartile = 22

Upper quartile = 59

Interquartile range = 59 - 22 = 37

For store 2

The range is 40 - 22 = 18

Mean  = 31.6

Standard deviation ≈ 6.41  (Lower variability)

Median = 33

Lower quartile = 24.5

Upper quartile = 38

Interquartile range = 38 - 24.5 = 13.5

1/5^2 = 7.56/45

a is the correct
