Question 6(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points) (08.03)A group of 12 students participated in a dance competition. Their scores are b
elow: Score (points) 1 2 3 4 5 Number of Students 1 2 4 3 2 Would a dot plot or a histogram best represent the data presented here? Why? Histogram, because a large number of scores are reported as ranges Histogram, because a small number of scores are reported individually
Dotplot, because a small number of scores are reported individually.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data :
Score (points) _______ 1 _ 2 _ 3 _ 4 _ 5
Number of Students __ 1 _ 2 _ 4 __3_ 2
Both the dot plot and histogram are used to represent graphical representation of data. The histogram uses bars ot represent data values or frequency of data organized or presented as ranges. This means histograms are usually ideal for grouped data which maintain a specified amount of interval between each class Or group. The Dotplot on the other hand handles individual data values using dots that represent the frequency of each. Since the data above are reported as individual data values, then the Dotplot is an ideal choice.
I think you basically just got to add everything up . I mean , i can already tell this is a graph question but it says perimeter so perimeter somehow means add everything up. But im still not too sure ..
