No not always, because x could be a smaller number than y which would make it an negative. If x is bigger than y most likely it will be, but not always.
It is not reasonable because the decimal placing on the 4.23 is greater then the one on 413. (2 is bigger then 1). When dealign with decimals it is important to remember that if the numbers before the decimal are the same for both numbers you need to look at the first decimal as though it's the first number. so we know 4 and 4 are the same. Next we look at the .23 and .13. We know that the number 2 is bigger then 1 so it's safe to say that 4.23 is larger then 4,13.

The histogram is especially useful in comparing mean and median values of a variable. We have that 5.5+6+7+10+7.5+8+9.5+9+8.5+8+7+7.5+6+6.5+5.5=111.5 Since there are 15 values, their mean is 111.5/15=7.43 which is very close to the mean. We also have that 7 onservations are lower than 7.4 while 8 are bigger than 7.4; hence, the diagram is rather balanced and not left-skewed. We cannot tell immediately which one is larger since the values are too close. Any such random process can usually be approximated to a greater or smaller degree by a normal curve; the more points, the better. The histogram shows this (it is kind of a discrete normal curve); all points except 4 will be in this interval of bars.
