Create a dot plot to represent the distribution of the data. b. Create a histogram to represent the distribution of the data. c. Which display gives you a better overall understanding of the data? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Please find attached the created dot plot

b) Please find attached the created histogram

c) The dot plot

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data on the responses to the question on "How hot is the side walk, during the school day", is presented as follows;

92, 95, 95, 95, 98, 100, 100, 100, 103, 105, 105, 111, 112, 115, 115, 116, 117, 117, 118, 119, 119, 119, 119, 119, 119

Given that manner of construction of the dot plot and the histogram, the display of the results are similar, however, due to the low frequencies of the data, the dot plot provides a view that allows quicker and clearer understanding of the data
