Question

A restaurant manager recorded the number of people in different age groups who attended her food festival. She then created the following histogram:

Histogram with title Food Festival Participants, horizontal axis labeled Age Group (year) with bins 0 to 19, 20 to 39, 40 to 59, and 60 to 79 and vertical axis labeled Number of People with values from 0 to 60 at intervals of 10. The first bin goes to 20, the second goes to 40, the third goes to 60, and the last goes to 50.

Which of the following statements best compares the height of the bars of the histogram?

There are twice as many pa

Answer 2

Looks like you're missing most of the "following statements".

Answer 3

Which of the following statements best compares the height of the bars of the histogram?

There are twice as many participants in the 60–79 age group than in the 0–19 age group.
There are 3 times as many participants in the 40–59 age group than in the 0–19 age group.
There are more participants in the 40–59 age group than in the 0–19 and 60–79 groups combined.
There are more participants in the 60–79 age group than in the 0–19 and 20–39 groups combined.

here u gp @SithsAndGiggles

Answer 5

Well do you know how to read histograms? Do you see how the first age range contains 20 participants, the second has 40, and so on?

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

Alright, so let's check the first statement. Are there twice as many people in the last age range than there are in the first range? Is \(2\times20=50\) true?

Answer 8

no

Answer 9

Right, so we can eliminate the first answer choice.

For the second, is it true that \(3\times20=60\)?

Answer 10

true /yes

Answer 11

There you have it. I'm assuming this is a multiple choice question with one answer. We're done.
