Question

1. what does the height of a bar in a histogram represent?

a. the median of the data
b. the frequency of the data
c. the average of the data
d. the range of data

Explanation:

A histogram is a graphical representation of data distribution. The height of each bar in a histogram corresponds to the frequency (or relative frequency) of the data within a particular interval (class). The median is the middle value of ordered data, the average is the mean, and the range is the difference between maximum and minimum values—none of these are represented by bar height in a histogram. So the height represents frequency.

Answer:

b. The frequency of the data
