PLEASE HELP!!! FAST. WILL MEDAL! The list shows the number of children who visited a city playground each day for two weeks. 13 24 30 25 38 26 10 9 16 35 42 31 15 42 Describe appropriate intervals for the horizontal axis for the histogram of the data.

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

is this multiple choice what are the option

OpenStudy (davidcachedore):

@supercalifragilisticexspeaalli No, it is a writing answer. I have to describe the intervals... So on. Thanks!

OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):

On a histogram- the independent variable is always going to be on the horizontal axis. That means the days of each week. There are 7 days in each week and the data is collect over 2 weeks. So I think an appropriate range would be from 0-14

If you read what @sunnnystrong has said and look at the partial drawing, that should help you to understand it.

OpenStudy (mrmoney403):

start by putting it in order

OpenStudy (davidcachedore):

@mrmoney403 Ok, the order is 9, 10, 13, 15, 16, 24, 25, 26, 30, 31, 35, 38, 42, 42. Thanks! Now what?

OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):

This is the interval for the vertical axis. The interval for the horizontal axis in set notation is (0,14]

OpenStudy (mrmoney403):

that doesnt make sense

OpenStudy (mrmoney403):

nvmd @sunnnystrong is right just did the work

OpenStudy (stacey):

The interval is 1 day, but the range is from 0 to 14 as has been stated.

OpenStudy (davidcachedore):

@stacey So, the interval is 1 day and the range of the horizontal axis is 0 to 14, right?

OpenStudy (stacey):

Yes.
