H The median length of the songs on Music Player X is equal to the median length of the songs on Music Player Y.

Respuesta :

From the box plot it follows:

For the music player X, the quartles are:

[tex]Q_3=6.5,Q_1=4.5[/tex]

Hence the interquartile range for music player X is given by:

[tex](IQR)_x=Q_3-Q_1=6.5-4.5=2[/tex]

Similarly for the music player Y, the quartiles are

[tex]Q_3=5,Q_1=4[/tex]

So the interquartile range for music player Y is given by:

[tex](IQR)_y=Q_3-Q_1=5-4=1[/tex]

Therefore it follows:

[tex](IQR)_x>(IQR)_y[/tex]

Therefore option G is correct.
