Determining Observations in Data through Histograms and Line Plots

This video tutorial teaches how to determine the number of observations in a dataset using line plots and histograms. It explains common mistakes, such as confusing numerical responses with observations, and emphasizes the importance of sample size in data interpretation. The tutorial provides a step-by-step guide on reading line plots and histograms, highlighting how each circle or bar represents a response. It concludes by discussing how larger sample sizes can provide a clearer picture of the population being studied.
