Common Core Standard 7.SP.B.3 Questions

Informally assess the degree of visual overlap of two numerical data distributions with similar variabilities, measuring the difference between the centers by expressing it as a multiple of a measure of variability. For example, the mean height of players on the basketball team is 10 cm greater than the mean height of players on the soccer team, about twice the variability (mean absolute deviation) on either team; on a dot plot, the separation between the two distributions of heights is noticeable.

Grade 7 Range, Median, Mean, and Mode CCSS: 7.SP.B.3
The following lists the grades for three students:

Student 1: 92, 83, 77, 47
Student 2: 97, 91, 89, 81
Student 3: 81, 79, 77, 76

Which statement is true about the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the students?
  1. MAD of student 1 = MAD of student 3
  2. MAD of student 2 = MAD of student 3
  3. MAD of student 3 > MAD of student 1
  4. MAD of student 1 > MAD of student 3
Grade 7 Collecting and Interpreting Data CCSS: 7.SP.B.3
Line plots for two sets of data are shown.
Line Plot 2
Line Plot 4
Which statement is true for the two sets of data?
  1. both have the same range
  2. both have the same mean
  3. both have the same median
  4. none of the above
Grade 7 Collecting and Interpreting Data CCSS: 7.SP.B.3
The line plots show the number of books read by the students in Mr. Murray's class and Ms. Stein's class.

Mr. Murray's Class:Line Plot 4
Ms. Stein's Class: Line Plot 3

Which statement best compares the range of values for the two data sets?
  1. The range is the same for both sets.
  2. The range for Mr. Murray's class is 2 more than the range for Ms. Stein's class.
  3. The range for Ms. Stein's class is 2 more than the range for Mr. Murray's class.
  4. There is not enough information to determine the range of values from the line plots.
Grade 7 Collecting and Interpreting Data CCSS: 7.SP.B.3
The line plots show the number of books read by the students in Mr. Murray's class and Ms. Stein's class.

Mr. Murray's Class:Line Plot 4
Ms. Stein's Class: Line Plot 3

Which statement best compares the median number of books read by the students in each class?
  1. The median number of books read by Mr. Murray's class is 3 more than the median number of books read by Ms. Stein's class.
  2. The median number of books read by Ms. Stein's class is 3 more than the median number of books read by Mr. Murray's class.
  3. The median number of books read by Mr. Murray's class is 5 more than the median number of books read by Ms. Stein's class.
  4. The median number of books read by Ms. Stein's class is 5 more than the median number of books read by Mr. Murray's class.
