Question 5 • *26-27 CFISD TX-Chemistry A CR

A tree farm sells trees based on height in increments of 10 feet. Which graph would best show the current stock of trees?

Answer
A
bar graph
B
line graph
C
histogram
D
scatterplot

Explanation

A histogram is best for showing how many trees fall into each height interval. Since the farm groups tree heights in 10-foot increments, each bar can show the number of trees in one interval, such as 0–10 feet or 10–20 feet. A bar graph is generally used to compare separate categories, while a line graph shows change over time.
