The graph represents the heights of two climbers on a climbing wall over a 12-minute time period. A graph where the horizontal axis shows time (minutes), numbered 1 to 12, and the vertical axis shows height (feet) numbered 2 to 24. The line labeled Brynn's climb begins at 0 feet in 0 minutes, to 15 feet from 5 to 7 minutes, to 0 feet in 10 minutes. The line labeled Abby's climb begins at 4 feet in 0 minutes, to 14 feet from 4 to 6 minutes, to 22 feet in 8 minutes, to 0 feet in 12 minutes.

How high did Abby climb above their original starting position?

8 feet
15 feet
18 feet
22 feet

solution:

as, mean is defined as sum of all the observations divided by total number of observations.

and , median is mid value of the data whether arranged in ascending order or descending order.

consider, roadsters:

2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

mean =

also, median= , because number of observations is even, so median is mean of two mid values.

now, coming to bandits

2,3,4,5,6

mean =  

median = 4, as number of observations is odd.

so, roadsters has greater median as well mean than bandits.

→option a is true about the repairs performed on 2 types of cars:

bandits have lower median and mean than roadsters.
