Name two situations that could require data to be displayed. Choose the most appropriate data display format for each and explain the reasoning for your choice

What will be an ideal response?


The teacher would like to display how many students received A's on the last test, B's, etc. A histogram would be appropriate because each individual score is not needed to meet her needs, simply intervals.

Barry would like to see whether there is a relationship between the amount of time he exercises and his weight. A scatter plot is the best data display for showing a relationship, because the correlation of two variables is easily seen.
