Question

A core distribution data is given for an inventory measuring physical fitness. The type of graph that will be used to display the information will be _____.
A.Histogram
B.Line Graph
C.Pie chart
D.Bar graph

Answer 1

Hint: A graph is a pictorial representation of a data. It is used to present the data that is too complicated to be described accurately and adequately in a single diagram using less space and fewer words. They are easier to make and provide more information in a single glance.

Complete step-by-step answer:
A core distribution data is given for an inventory measuring physical fitness. We have to find the type of graph to display the information regarding it.
Histogram is used to represent the comparison between the same types of data that is continuous. In this the bars are drawn adjacent to each other instead of a distance apart.
Line graphs are used to display information about anything that changes continuously over time. It shows overall increase or decrease in the data or a trend over a given interval of time.
Pie chart is used to describe the parts of anything or how a whole is divided into different categories.
Bar graphs are used to compare facts of different categories or groups. It basically represents that data that are in categories. In this the bars are drawn at a distance from each other and are separated.
Since we are measuring the data that can change over time, we will represent the inventory with a line graph.
The correct answer is option B.

Note: Line graph is used in following ways-
To track the changes made for a particular period of time whether it is short or long.
It is used to compare the changes of different groups over the same period of time.
