Question

here is a table of the sales (in millions) of the top ten frozen pizza brands for a recent year. which types of graphical displays would be appropriate for showing the data?
histogram
lineplot (or dotplot)
box plot
stem - and - leaf plot
scatterplot

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A lineplot (or dotplot) is appropriate as it can show each data point clearly for a relatively small dataset. A stem - and - leaf plot can also work well to display the distribution of the numerical data (dollar sales) in an ordered way. A box plot can show the distribution characteristics (median, quartiles, etc.) of the data. A histogram is not ideal as the data is not grouped into intervals in a way that would be meaningful for a histogram (the data is for distinct brands, not continuous intervals in a sense that a histogram requires). A scatterplot is for showing the relationship between two variables (here we have only one variable - dollar sales for each brand).

Answer:

Lineplot (or dotplot), Stem - and - leaf plot, Box plot
