Help with 9 please this is very hard i guess please help

Answer 1

The pie chart is presented in 3D. While it may look interesting or cool, it's better to convey the data in a flat 2D form instead. The reason why is because it's possible to perceive some slices to be larger than they actually should be. The green slice shows the thickness of it, or the height of the pie slice. The same is for the yellow slice as well. We cannot see the thickness portions of the red or blue slices. So it's very possible that a reader may think that the yellow slice is larger than the blue one, even though they represent the same percentages (so the slices should be the same size).

Also, there's a worry that slices in the back further away from the camera will appear smaller due to the 3D nature of the graph. This helps make the yellow slice (which is closer to the camera) appear slightly larger than the blue slice (further away from the camera). These are slight differences that may be overlooked and could not be an issue; however, it is possible to distort things and make the differences greater. So that's one thing you have to be careful about when it comes to 3D graphs like this. The author of this graph may have not had an intention to deceive, and they may have simply wanted to make it look nice and catch the eye better, but there's no way of knowing for sure. It's simply best to always be on the lookout for anything misleading like this. It happens quite often in statistics.
