Which is the best display for the set of numbers of daily 911 calls made in a month, if you want to be able to identify the mode?
a) histogram with intervals of 5
b) histogram with intervals of 3
c) line graph
d) line plot
I think its either A or D
its line plot
asia is wrong it line graph
To identify the mode, which is the value that appears most frequently in a set of numbers, a histogram or a line plot would be the most suitable display.
A histogram is a visual representation that organizes data into intervals or bins. By using intervals of 5 or 3, each bin can represent a range of values. To find the mode, you would look for the bin with the highest bar (frequency).
On the other hand, a line plot is a simple diagram that uses a line to represent the frequency of each unique value. Each value is plotted on a number line, and the mode would be the value with the longest line segment.
Given the options provided, both a histogram with intervals of 5 (option A) and a line plot (option D) would allow you to identify the mode. It ultimately depends on personal preference and the specific characteristics of the data you are working with.
