Unfortunately, the given prompt does not include the actual datasets for math and science scores. To accurately determine which statement is true, I would need access to the specific score data for both subjects. Here’s how you would evaluate each statement if you had the datasets:
1. **Median Comparison:** Calculate the median of both the math and science scores and compare them to see which is higher.
2. **Spread (Variability) Comparison:** Assess the spread of the scores by looking at measures like the range, variance, or standard deviation. Compare the spread of the math scores to that of the science scores to determine which set is less spread out.
3. **Interquartile Range (IQR) Comparison:** Compute the IQR for both the math and science scores (IQR = Q3 - Q1, where Q3 is the third quartile and Q1 is the first quartile). Compare the IQRs to see which one is lower.
4. **Range Comparison:** Calculate the range for both sets of scores (Range = Maximum score - Minimum score) and compare them to see which range is higher.
Given the absence of the actual data, it's impossible to conclusively determine which statement is true. If you can provide the datasets, I’d be able to assist further!
Which statement is true about the given datasets? (1 point) Responses The median of the math scores is higher than the median of the science scores. The median of the math scores is higher than the median of the science scores. The math scores are less spread out than the science scores. The math scores are less spread out than the science scores. The interquartile range (IQR) of the science scores is lower than the IQR of the math scores. The interquartile range (IQR) of the science scores is lower than the IQR of the math scores. The range of the science scores is higher than the range of the math scores. The range of the science scores is higher than the range of the math scores.
