Explanation:

Step1: Recall Pareto - chart characteristics

A Pareto chart is a bar graph where the bars are arranged in descending order of frequency. The frequencies for the seasons are: Summer 36%, Fall 22%, Spring 27%, Winter 15%.

Step2: Analyze the options

We need to find the bar - graph where the bars are in descending order of height corresponding to the percentages of the seasons. Summer should have the tallest bar, followed by Spring, then Fall, and Winter should have the shortest bar.

Step3: Check each option

Option A has the bars in the wrong order. Option B has Summer as the tallest bar, but the order of the other bars is incorrect. Option C has the bars in the correct descending order: Summer (S) is the tallest, then Spring (Sp), then Fall (F), and Winter (W) is the shortest. Option D has the bars in an incorrect order.

Answer:

C. Favorite Season with bars in order S, Sp, F, W where the height of the bar for S is the tallest, followed by Sp, then F, and W is the shortest.
