Test Score
The data for each grade have the same interquartile range (IQR). Which of the following best compares the two test score distributions?
The median score of the seventh-grade class is 2 points greater than the median score of the sixth-grade class. This difference is
the same as the IQR.
The median score of the seventh-grade class is 2 points greater than the median score of the sixth-grade class. This difference is
twice as much as the IQR.
The median score of the seventh-grade class is 3 points greater than the median score of the sixth-grade class. This…
