24. How are graphs with a nonzero axis most misleading? (1 point) They are visually distracting. They are created using biased data. They have different scales for each axis. They distort differences between values. 25. A company installs carpets in homes. The average bedroom requires 100 square feet of carpet, (1 point) and the average living room requires 144 square feet of carpet. The company wants to compare the average sizes using a graph. Which of the following would be the most accurate representation? a square with a side length of 100 and a square with a side length of 144 a cube with a side length of 100 and a cube with a side length of 144 a square with a side length of 10 and a square with a side length of 12 a cube with a side length of 10 and a cube with a side length of 12

Questions to answer: 2.1 State the advantages and disadvantages of dot plots, stem plots, and histograms. It may be helpful to make a chart. 2.2 Suppose I have three sets of data: • I want to display the test scores of 25 students in my class. The scores range from 50 to 95. • I want to display the number of siblings my 25 students have. The data ranges from no siblings to 5. • I want to display the transcript averages of 300 students in the school. The scores range from 55 to 100. One set of data will be shown using a dot plot. One set using a stem plot, and one set using a histogram. Explain which data set should go with each type of graph. Topic: Describing Graphs Please watch 1.6: Daily video from College Board Questions to answer: 2.3 When describing a distribution, what are the four characteristics that should be mentioned? 2.4. Take a look at the graph below, which shows the percentage of population in various countries with access to electricity. Describe the distribution, covering the four characteristics you mentioned in question. Be sure to explain in context.
