Would a dot plot or a histogram best represent the data presented here? Why?
A) Histogram, because a large number of scores are reported as ranges
B) Histogram, because a small number of scores are reported individually
C) Dot plot, because a large number of scores are reported as ranges
D) Dot plot, because a small number of scores are reported individually

Respuesta :

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

histogram's report ranges

ex.

60 people in 20 - 29

20 people in 30 - 39

10 people in 40 - 49

A) Histogram is suitable for this data, as large number of scores are reported as ranges

Histogram is a form of graphical representation of data, presenting a group of data points in particular ranges.

Dot plot presents data simply by number of dots, on various data points.

In this case : students scores are not in individual numerical units, but in range. Scores : 20 to 29 ... 60 to 69

So, Histogram is suitable in this case, and not Dot Plot
