Question

a student collected data about the distance a ball falls over time. which type of graph should she use to show the data? circle graph histogram scatterplot bar graph

Explanation:

A scatter - plot is used to show the relationship between two variables. Here, the two variables are time and the distance the ball falls. It can display how the distance changes over time. Bar graphs are for comparing discrete data, histograms are for showing the distribution of a single variable in intervals, and there is no such thing as a circle graph among common data - display types (it might be confused with a pie - chart which is for showing proportions of a whole).

Answer:

B. scatterplot
