Use the table to answer the question.
Number of Siblings: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Number of 6th Graders: 3, 12, 5, 2, 0, 1
Kaylen wants to know the number of siblings 6th graders typically have. She surveys the 6th graders on her soccer team. Her results are given in the table. She calculates that the median number of siblings is 1. She then realizes that she counted one data value twice by accident. She needs to remove one of the “0 siblings” values from the table. Determine how removing a “0” from the dataset will impact the median.
A. The new median is 1. The median stayed the same.
B. The new median is 5. The median increased.
C. The new median is 3. The median increased.
D. The new median is 1.5. The median increased.

Aziz wonders how many pieces of pizza people tend to eat at a pizza party. He surveys 11 people at the end of a pizza party and asks them how many pieces of pizza they ate. A list of his results follows. Aziz uses his results to calculate that the range for number of pieces of pizza eaten is 6, and the interquartile range is 4.
Number of Pieces of Pizza Eaten: 6, 2, 1, 2, 4, 5, 2, 2, 4, 6, 7
After calculating the range and the interquartile range, Aziz realizes he forgot to include himself! He ate 3 pieces of pizza.
Determine the range and interquartile range after a “3” is added to the dataset. Describe how adding a “3” to the dataset impacts the range and the interquartile range.
A. The range is now 7, and the interquartile range is now 3.5. Both the range and the interquartile range changed slightly.
B. The range is still 6, and the interquartile range is still 4. Both the range and the interquartile range stayed the same.
C. The range is now 7, but the interquartile range is still 4. The range increased slightly, but the interquartile range stayed the same.
D. The range is still 6, but the interquartile range is now 3.5. The range stayed the same, but the interquartile range changed slightly.

r u positive
Yes, I am positive. Adding a "3" to the dataset will not change the range, as the range is based on the difference between the maximum and minimum values in the dataset. However, the interquartile range will be affected as it is based on the difference between the upper and lower quartiles, and the addition of the "3" will change these quartiles, leading to a change in the interquartile range.

Number of Siblings: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Number of 6th Graders: 3, 12, 5, 2, 0, 1
Kaylen wants to know how many siblings 6th graders have. She surveys the 6th graders on her soccer team. Her results are given in the table. She calculates that the interquartile range for number of siblings is 1. She then realizes that she counted one data value twice by accident. She needs to remove one of the “0 siblings” values from the table. Determine how removing a “0” from the dataset will impact the interquartile range.
A. The new interquartile range is 1. The interquartile range stayed the same.
B. The new interquartile range is 0.5. The interquartile range decreased.
C. The new interquartile range is 1.5. The interquartile range increased.
D. The new interquartile range is 6.5. The interquartile range increased.
