Two groups of students were asked how far they lived from their school. The table below shows the distances in miles:
Group A (distance in miles) 1 1.5 3 3.2 2.8 1.5 1.8 2.5 2.2
Group B (distance in miles) 2 2.5 3.23 1.8 2.4 3
Which statement best compares the mean distances for the two groups?
tie anual for Group A and Group B.

Answer:

(b) The statement :  It is greater for Group B than Group A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given question is INCOMPLETE.

Two groups of students were asked how far they lived from their school. The table below shows the distances in miles

Group A (distance in miles) 1 1.5 3.03 3.2 2.8 1.5 1.8 2.5 2.2

Group B (distance in miles) 2 2.5 3.23 1.3 1.8 2.4 3 1.5 1.8

Which statement best compares the mean distances for the two groups?

It is equal for Group A and Group B.

It is greater for Group B than Group A.

Its value for Group A is double the value for Group B.

Its value for Group B is double the value for Group A.

Answer:

Now,here the  calculating the mean as calculated by the group A.

[tex]\textrm{Mean}  = \frac{\textrm{Sum of Obseravtion}}{\textrm{ Number of Observation}}[/tex]

Mean as calculated by Group A  = [tex]\frac{\textrm{1 +  1.5 +3 +3.2+ 2.8+ 1.5 +1.8+ 2.5 +2.2}}{\textrm{ Number of Observation}} = \frac{19.5}{9}  =2.16[/tex]

So, mean by Group A  = 2.16

Now, calculating the mean as calculated by the group B.

[tex]\textrm{Mean}  = \frac{\textrm{Sum of Obseravtion}}{\textrm{ Number of Observation}}[/tex]

Mean as calculated by Group B  = [tex]\frac{\textrm{2 + 2.5 +3.23 +1.3 + 1.8+ 2.4 +3 +1.5 +1.8}}{\textrm{ Number of Observation}} = \frac{14.93}{9}  =2.48[/tex]

So, mean by Group B  = 2.17

Hence, the statement :  It is greater for Group B than Group A is correct.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. It is greater for Group B than Group A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The values are not equal and the difference just isn't enough for it to be any of the other answers making B the right option.
