What is the primary advantage of using dot plots for data representation?

• They are easier to create than histograms.

• They provide a clear view of each data point's distribution.

• They do not require knowledge of quartiles.

• They can accurately calculate mean values.

What characteristic of dot plots makes them unique compared to histograms and box plots?

• Ability to show exact values for each data point.

• More accurate representation of skewed data.

• Simpler calculation of mean values.

• Easier identification of quartiles.

How can you identify a normal distribution in a histogram?

• By counting the number of peaks.

• By the length of the bars.

• By observing a symmetrical bell-shaped curve.

• By noticing a skewed distribution of data.

What indicates a skewed right distribution in a box plot?

• All data points are on the right side.

• The right side of the box is stretched out.

• The median is closer to the top of the box.

• The left side of the box is stretched out.

How is a skewed right distribution identified in a histogram?

• When all bars are of equal height.

• When there is a tail on the right side.

• When the left side has longer bars.

• When the bars form a symmetrical shape.

Why can't the mean be accurately calculated using a histogram?

• Because histograms do not show individual data points.

• Because histograms only display the median.

• Because histograms only show the mode.

• Because histograms are only used for skewed data.

In the context of histograms, what are 'bins'?

• The lines dividing the histogram into four parts.

• The peaks of each bar representing the mode.

• The individual data points within each range.

• Ranges of values each bar represents.

Which part of the box plot indicates the first quartile?

• The line between the median and the maximum.

• The line between the minimum and the median.
