Shiro and Tatiana weighed some pebbles in science class. They made a line plot to display their data. Use the line plot to answer 4–6. Suppose 2 more pebbles are weighed and each weighs 3 1/2 ounces. Would the value that occurred most often change?

• Yes, the value that occurred most often would change.

• No, the value that occurred most often would not change.

• It depends on the original data.

• Cannot be determined from the given information.

Lewis recorded the number of minutes it took him to walk to school every day for two weeks. What type of plot should he use to display the data set?

• Bar plot

• Line plot

• Pie chart

Lewis recorded the number of minutes it took him to walk to school every day for two weeks. Lewis said that the difference between his fastest time and his slowest time was 2 minutes. Do you agree with Lewis?

• Yes, the difference is 2 minutes.

• No, the difference is not 2 minutes.

• It cannot be determined from the information given.
