Question

which best explains how the histogram is useful for comparing the shapes of the data sets? it is easier to visually compare the means of the data it is easier to visually compare the standard deviations of the data it is easier to visually compare the medians of the data it is easier to visually compare symmetry and skew of the data

Explanation:

Histograms display the distribution of data. By looking at the bars' shapes, we can see if data is symmetric (even on both sides) or skewed (more weight on one side). Means, standard - deviations, and medians are numerical values that are not as easily visually compared in a histogram as symmetry and skew.

Answer:

It is easier to visually compare symmetry and skew of the data
