Annabel is comparing the distances that two electric cars can travel after the battery is fully charged. Car A
(miles) Car B
(miles)
Mean 145 200
Median 142 196
IQR 8 4
MAD 6 2

Part A
Use the measures of center to make an inference about the data. Use the drop-down menus to complete your answer.

Car B
can travel further than
Car A
after the battery is fully charged.

Part B
Based on the data, which car performs most consistently? Explain.
A.

Car A because the measures of center are smaller for Car A than for Car B.
B.

Car B because the measures of center are smaller for Car B than for Car A.
C.

Car A because the measures of variability are smaller for Car A than for Car B.
D.

Car B because the measures of variability are smaller for Car B than for Car A.
