Question

1. directions complete the bar chart by clicking the location of each bar to correctly represent the data. create a histogram of the data with an appropriate scale.

temp (°f) number of days
40 – 49 18
50 – 59 48
60 – 69 15
70 – 79 3
temperatures in new york

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the x - axis categories

The x - axis will have the temperature intervals: \(40 - 49\), \(50 - 59\), \(60 - 69\), \(70 - 79\).

Step2: Determine the y - axis scale

The number of days values are \(18\), \(48\), \(15\), \(3\). The maximum value is \(48\), so we can choose a scale for the y - axis (number of days) where each unit on the y - axis represents, for example, 3 days (or a suitable multiple). Let's choose a scale with a maximum of 50 (since 48 is close to 50) and intervals of 10 or 5. A scale with intervals of 10 (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50) would work.

Step3: Plot the bars

• For the interval \(40 - 49\) with 18 days: The bar height should reach up to 18 on the y - axis.
• For the interval \(50 - 59\) with 48 days: The bar height should reach up to 48 on the y - axis.
• For the interval \(60 - 69\) with 15 days: The bar height should reach up to 15 on the y - axis.
• For the interval \(70 - 79\) with 3 days: The bar height should reach up to 3 on the y - axis.

(Note: Since this is a text - based response, we can't actually click on the bar chart, but the above steps describe how to create the histogram. The x - axis is labeled "Temperature (\(^{\circ}\)F)" with the intervals, and the y - axis is labeled "Number of Days".)

Answer:

To create the histogram:

• X - axis: Label as "Temperature (\(^{\circ}\)F)" with intervals \(40 - 49\), \(50 - 59\), \(60 - 69\), \(70 - 79\).
• Y - axis: Label as "Number of Days" with a scale (e.g., 0 to 50 with intervals of 10).
• Bars:
• For \(40 - 49\): Height corresponding to 18 days.
• For \(50 - 59\): Height corresponding to 48 days.
• For \(60 - 69\): Height corresponding to 15 days.
• For \(70 - 79\): Height corresponding to 3 days.
