Question
3 select the correct answer from each drop - down menu. for many years, the number of rainy days in march has been recorded in the towns of riverton and waterview. riverton has a mean of 11 rainy days in march, with a standard deviation of 3 days. waterview has a mean of 13 rainy days in march, with a standard deviation of 2 days. if the number of rainy days for both towns is graphed, waterviews graph will have a peak farther to the right, and its peak will be wider, narrower, the same width
Step1: Understand mean and standard - deviation in graphs
The mean represents the center of the distribution (peak location). A higher mean shifts the peak to the right. Waterview has a mean of 13 rainy days and Riverton has a mean of 11 rainy days, so Waterview's peak is to the right.
Step2: Understand standard - deviation and graph width
The standard - deviation measures the spread of the data. A smaller standard - deviation results in a narrower graph. Waterview has a standard - deviation of 2 days and Riverton has a standard - deviation of 3 days. Since 2 < 3, Waterview's graph is narrower.
