A state trooper used a radar gun to measure the speed (in miles per hour) of all the cars that drove past her stretch of highway in a twenty minute period. She separated the results by whether the cars were traveling northbound or southbound. The histograms show the speed of each car that she recorded.
Which statement is an appropriate inference based on the median of each data set?
Question 4 options:
1.)The northbound cars were generally faster because the median for the northbound cars is less than the median for the southbound cars.
2.)The northbound cars were generally faster because the median for the northbound cars is greater than the median for the southbound cars.
3.)The southbound cars were generally faster because the median for the northbound cars is less than the median for the southbound cars.
4.)The southbound cars were generally faster because the median for the northbound cars is greater than the median for the southbound cars.
