Question 15 • Concepts in Probability and Statistics A

Which are true statements about histograms? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
Data are organized by categories.
B
Data are organized in equal intervals.
C
Bars can go in any order.
D
Bars must appear in numerical order.
E
Bars are not touching.
F
Bars are always touching.

Explanation

A histogram groups numerical data into equal-width intervals, so the data are organized in equal intervals. Because the intervals represent a number line, the bars appear in numerical order. The bars touch because the intervals are continuous; unlike a bar graph, a histogram does not leave gaps between bars.
