Answer: The mean hours the groups of teens spent studying is little bit greater for  15- to 16-year old teen or about same .

The range range for the two groups of of teens is greater for 13- to 14-year old teens.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the mean of a data is given by :-

[tex]\text{Mean}=\dfrac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}[/tex]

Range = largest observation - least observation

From the given table :

The mean hours spent by 13- to 14-year olds is given by :-

[tex]\text{Mean}=\dfrac{87}{10}=8.7[/tex]

[tex]\text{Range=12-2=10}[/tex]

The mean hours spent by 15- to 16-year olds is given by :-

[tex]\text{Mean}=\dfrac{89}{10}=8.9[/tex]

[tex]\text{Range=12-4=8}[/tex]

The mean hours the groups of teens spent studying is little bit greater for  15- to 16-year old teen or can say about same.

The range range for the two groups of of teens is greater for 13- to 14-year old teens.
