Question

Thirty adults were asked which of the following conveniences they would find most difficult to do without: television, refrigerator, air conditioning, public transportation, or microwave. These data would be best displayed using which of the following?

(A) Histogram
(B) Stemplot
(C) IQR
(D) Pie chart
(E) Boxplot

Answer 1

Answer:

(D) Pie chart

Step-by-step explanation:

The most appropriate method to represent the resulting data is the pie chart. This is because, in this sample, the variables are few and of nominal type.

Of the rest of the options, the only other that could be used is the histogram, since it can represent nominal variables with their corresponding frequency. The rest of the options have other uses not appropriate for this type of sample.
