The snowball data for Resort A are close to symmetric when they are shown in a box plot. The snowfall data for Resort B are not symmetric when they are shown in a box plot. Why is a box plot a good method to compare the data? Sample response: When comparing two sets of data, a box plot can show whether either set of data is symmetric. If The data are symmetric, then the mean equals the median. If the data are not symmetric, then the median will be a better measure of center than the mean.
