Question

match the plot with a possible description of the sample. choose the correct answer below. a. highest yearly temperature (°f) for a sample of deserts b. wait time (in minutes) for a sample of doctors offices c. ages (in years) of a sample of residents of a retirement home d. grade point averages of a sample of students with finance majors

Explanation:

We need to consider the range and nature of values in each option. Temperatures in deserts can vary widely but are usually in a different range than what seems appropriate here. Wait - times at doctors' offices can be any non - negative value but might have a different distribution pattern. Ages of residents in a retirement home are usually 60 or above. Grade point averages typically range from 0 to 4 (or 0 to 100 if on a percentage scale), and the plot seems to be in a range consistent with GPA values.

Answer:

D. Grade point averages of a sample of students with finance majors
