The box plots show the weights, in pounds, of the dogs in two different animal shelters.

Weights of Dogs in Shelter A

2 box plots. The number line goes from 6 to 30. For the weights of dogs in shelter A, the whiskers range from 8 to 30, and the box ranges from 17 to 28. A line divides the box at 21. For shelter B, the whiskers range from 10 to 28, and the box ranges from 16 to 20. A line divides the box at 18.

Weights of Dogs in Shelter B

Which is true of the data in the box plots? Select three choices.

The median weight for shelter A is greater than that for shelter B.

The median weight for shelter B is greater than that for shelter A.

The data for shelter A are a symmetric data set.

The data for shelter B are a symmetric data set.

The interquartile range of shelter A is greater than the interquartile range of shelter B.
