Answer 2

A histogram is not the same as a bar graph.
In a histogram, the bars touch.

For the first car sales problem, here is what I got.

See what you think.

I used the histogram maker at http://www.socscistatistics.com/descriptive/histograms/ .

Answer 3

t=so for the first graph it should look like the graph you did?

Answer 4

I don't know what this means:>> t=so

I'm not saying that the first histogram should be what I posted from the histogram maker site.

I do think that the "bars" should be contiguous. Your bars don't touch each other.
Look in your text and see what is said about histograms.

I will try #2 later today.

@kittymeow101

Answer 5

ok so i should just touch the bars together in the first histogram?

Answer 6

Just a second while I find the print-outs.

Answer 7

ok

Answer 8

You can try pushing them together but the numbers at the bottom cannot skip.

For example, on histogram #2, if you pushed those bars together, then 10 would not be consecutive with 12.

Answer 9

I am going to see what the histogram maker says for Dr. Freeman's problem.

Answer 10

ok

Answer 11

Dr. Freeman

Histogram still needs labels for x-axis, y-axis, and the title of the entire histogram.

Answer 12

I think that this is the way the histograms are supposed to look.

I wish @kropot72 were on the site to tell us what he thinks.

Answer 13

so is the frequency table supposed to have those numbers instead of the ones i put?

Answer 14

There is no unique answer for that. You could go with your range of bar values but the problem is that they have gaps.

A second problem is that two of the bars have width 2 and the third bar has width almost 4. The instructions state that each bar should have the same number of values (width of bar).

Answer 15

Histogram - no gaps.

Answer 17

Answer 18

Does the graph i fixed look correct now?

Answer 19

Yes. It needs labels, though.

Answer 20

labels where?

Answer 21

Histogram still needs labels for x-axis, y-axis, and the title of the entire histogram.

Answer 22

Look at the instructions:

"Be sure to include a title, labels indicating the bar value along the x-axis, labels for the bar height values, and bars drawn to appropriate heights."

Answer 23

so how do i label the graph exactly?

Answer 24

x-axis: Ages of Patients

y-axis: Number of Patients

Title: Ages of Dr. Freeman's Patients Covered Under a Certain Insurance Plan

Answer 25

oh ok

Answer 26

Look how I did these on the first problem.

Answer 27

so after i finish labeling them everything else is correct?

Answer 28

@Directrix

Answer 29

There may need to be a gap here.

Answer 30

why

Answer 31

so it should look like this http://prntscr.com/a2n88o

Answer 32

Because the numbers on the x-axis skip from 10 to 12

Answer 33

No. There is only one gap.

The remainder of the bars have no gap.

Answer 34

And, the gap must show a frequency of 0 and have the same bar width as the other bars.

Answer 35

Although the bars look to have the same width, they do not if you look at the numbers beneath them.

Answer 36

it wont let me put a gap inbetween them ;-;

Answer 37

You will not need a gap if you go with these class intervals.

Note that each bar width is the same and the number do not skip, so no gaps needed.

Answer 38

for the snow question, how many inches of snow had mostly been down?

Answer 39

Hold on.

Answer 40

Snow Histogram

Answer 41

@kittymeow101

Answer 42

ok so within a year it would have 29-36 inches?

Answer 43

which is the amount that would be down in a year

Answer 44

Notice that the widths of the bars is 7, even the gap bar.That is the way the bar widths are supposed to be.

Answer 45

is my graph correct for the snow question http://prntscr.com/a2nfys

Answer 46

also what may be the answers two the two questions below, sorry to be such a bother

Answer 47

The problem says that the scientist is trying to figure out how much snow has fallen. You are not asked that. The scientist will use the histogram to look at the distribution of snow. That is the way I interpret the problem.

Answer 48

Did you write the snow question yourself?

Answer 49

a friend helped me come up with it

Answer 50

Okay.

The snow histogram is not correct because we still have the problem with unequal bar widths.

They jump across the x-axis from widths of 5 to 3 to 9 to 19.

As the instructions stated, the bar widths must be the same.

You have the bars *looking* to be of the same width but anybody who looks at the numbers below the bars will know the bars do not have the same widths.

That will, I believe, will cause you to get less than full credit on this problem.

On the questions the friend made up, it is my opinion that the questions need to be revised because they are somewhat vague.

So, you work on getting the bar widths the same. Later today, I will help you revise the two snow questions.

Answer 51

ok ty
