A larger data set was used to convict 5 members of the company of grand larceny. Find the mean and median for each of the two samples and then compare the two sets of results. Do the limited data listed here show evidence of stealing by the security company's employees?

1.6; 1.5
1.8; 2.1
1.6; 1.9
1.8; 2.2
1.7; 1.9
1.2; 1.7
1.1; 2.1
1.2; 2.2
1.2; 2.2
1.5; 1.8

Find the means.
The mean for the security company is $ ___ million and the mean for the other companies is $ ?
Find the medians.
The median for the security company is $ ___ million and the median for the other companies is $ ?

D. The mean and the median for the collections performed by other companies are both lower than the mean and the median for the security company.
E. The mean is lower for the security company, but the median is lower for the collections performed by other companies.

Do the limit data listed here show evidence of stealing by the security company's employees?
A. The sample size is not large enough to show any meaningful results.
B. Since the security company appears to have collected lower revenue than the other companies, there is some evidence of stealing by the security company's employees.
C. Since the security company does not appear to have collected lower revenue than the other companies, there is no evidence of stealing by the security company's employees.
D. Since the data is not matched, there is no evidence of stealing by the security company's employees.
