Sajjad1994
Sajjad1994, Is the table missing information related to the state? Statement 3 asks about the state of Utah. However, the table contained information about the city alone—it did not include the state in which the city is situated.
As for statement 1 and 2,
Statement 1: The percent change in the passenger count from 2012 created the rank identifier for 2013.
This is false; if we check the table, as rank increases, we are expecting it to either decrease or increase. But in the table, we see that when % change drops even when rank increases. Which means rank and percentage change are not related.
Statement 2:The train station that has the median number of passengers also has the median rank.
We see that the median rank is 6 and the median number of passengers is 1014 after filtering the passenger column.
So this is True

No! the table misses nothing and that's why the third statement is wrong because it asks to evaluate something we don't know according to the question
