Question

(a) which city had a smaller range of noon temperatures?
city a
(b) which city had noon temperatures with a larger interquartile range (iqr)?
city a
(c) which city had a larger median noon temperature?
city b
(d) which city had the highest noon temperature?
select

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze range

Range is calculated as \( \text{Max}-\text{Min} \). For City A: \( 75 - 85= 10 \). For City B: \( 95 - 70 = 25 \). So City A has smaller range.

Step2: Analyze IQR

IQR is \( Q3 - Q1 \). For City A: \( 82 - 80=2 \). For City B: \( 90 - 87 = 3 \). So City B has larger IQR.

Step3: Analyze median

Median is middle value. City A's median is \( 83 \), City B's median is \( 88 \). So City B has larger median.

Step4: Analyze max value

Max value for City A is \( 75 \), for City B is \( 95 \). So City B has highest noon - temperature.

Answer:

(a) City A; (b) City B; (c) City B; (d) City B
