The average cost of a car in 1990 was $9,437 and the average cost of a car in 2018 was $36,113. Which of the following graphs co
mpares these totals more accurately? ( stem, leaf) display
1 answer:
Answer: A would be more accurate
Step-by-step explanation:
In 2018 the price of a car is $36,113 while it costs $9,437 in 1990. This means that the price increased from 1990 by;
= 36,113/9,437
= 3.8 times.
With the x axis already representing time, the y axis will represent price. Looking at the back of the cars(y axis), Graph A would therefore be more realistic as the car in 1990 looks almost 4 times as small as the car in 2018 unlike Graph B that has the 1990 car looking about 3 times smaller.
