Question

This graph appeared in a local newspaper after a recent election, Do you agree with the message in the graph title

Answer 1

Answer:

NO

Step-by-step explanation:

You should not agree.

Graphically the graph shows a wide difference, with roberts getting aboyt twice votes as the 2nd candidate. However, the ordinates axis is nos set beginning in 0, is starts in 900. This is a usual trick to make differences look grater than they are.

The three candidates together sum 2840 votes (980+920+940), and the difference between the first 2 is 40 votes, which represents only 1.4% of votes (40/2840).

So, the margin is not wide.

Answer 2

we are not agree with the message in the graph title

Further explanation

The percent is a number that shows a comparison of the number 100 or can be called per hundred (symbol%)  

Formula used:  $\large{\boxed{\bold{Percentage\:=\:\frac{Total\:Section}{Total\:Amount}\:\times\:100\percent}}$

From the graph titile it says : Robert wins by wide margins

let's look at the difference in margins between participants

total votes = 920+940+980 = 2840

• Gomes-Johnson :

$\displaystyle =\frac{20}{2840}\times 100 \%\\\\=0.7\%$

• Johnson-Robert :

$\displaystyle =\frac{40}{2840}\times 100 \%\\\\=1.4\%$

• Gomes-Robert :

$\displaystyle =\frac{60}{2840}\times 100 \%\\\\=2.1\%$

So the margin difference between the three participants is not large/wide
