Dominick is planning to take a vacation to either Orlando or Tampa Bay. He wants to go to the city that is warmer, on average. The box plot below shows the temperatures from the previous year during the time that Dominick will take his vacation: box plot labeled Orlando with min at 64.5, Q1 at 65.5, median at 67.5, Q3 at 71.5, max at 72.5. Box plot labeled Tampa Bay with min at 60, Q1 at 63.5, median at 66.25, Q3 at 72.5, max at 74 Which city should Dominick visit, and why? He should visit Orlando. It has a greater IQR. He should visit Orlando. The median is higher and the range is smaller, so the temperature is higher on average. He should visit Tampa Bay. The highest temperature occurred there. He should visit Tampa Bay. The range is very large, so there is a better chance that any given day will be warm.

I've answered this question before. By the way, here is the box plot for this problem, please see attached image.

He should visit Orlando. The median is higher and the range is smaller, so the temperature is higher on average. This is the correct answer, as we are only interested in the average temperature in both cities in deciding which to go to. The larger the range (max - min values) or interquartile range (range of central box), the more spread out the temperatures are around the median. As Orlando's range and interquartile range is lower than Tampa Bay's, and its median (middle value in the data set of temperatures) is higher, Dominick would, on average, have more chance of visiting Orlando on a day when it was warmer than Tampa Bay than the other way around.
