Question

1. return to the graphical display presented in question 8. which one of the following interpretations of this display is correct? a. the distribution of number of bald eagle nests is skewed to the left given that most counties have less than 20 total nests. b. no counties in ohio have exactly 0 bald eagle nests. c. no counties in ohio have exactly 120 bald eagle nests. d. because there are spaces between some of the bars in this graph, we call this type of graph a bar chart. e. none of the above statements are correct.

Explanation:

• Option A: The distribution is skewed right as the tail extends to the right (higher - number of nests), not left.
• Option B: The bar at 0 has a non - zero frequency, so some counties have 0 nests.
• Option C: The bar at 120 has a non - zero frequency, so some counties have 120 nests.
• Option D: A bar chart has spaces between bars for categorical data, but this is a histogram (for quantitative data) and the spaces are part of the binning, not the defining feature of a bar chart.

Answer:

E. None of the above statements are correct.
