A forester measured the diameter of 20 randomly selected pine trees from two different forests in inches. He measured the
diameter of 10 trees in Pebble Brook forest and 10 trees in Piney Woods forest. He then calculated the following statistical
information
Pebble Brook Piney Woods
25
38
27.5
First Quartile
Second Quartile (Median)
Third Quartile
33
30
Based on these samples, what generalization can be made?
A.
The third quartile of diameters is greater for the trees in Pebble Brook than in Piney Woods
B.
The median of diameters is greater for the trees in Pinoy Woods than in Pebble Brook.
C.
The first quartile of diameters is less for the trees in Pebble Brook than in Piney Woods
D.
The interquartile range of diameters is greater for the trees in Piney Woods than in Pebble Brook.
