Question

select the correct answer from each drop - down menu.
the following histogram displays the test score results for ms. garrisons algebra class.

complete the following statements using the given histogram.
the data in the histogram is
anabelle was absent on the day of the test and had to make it up the following week. she scored a 60, and her score should be added to bin
the total number of students who scored less than a 70 on the day of the test is

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the type of data

A histogram represents quantitative data as it shows numerical test scores on the \(x -\)axis and the number of students (a numerical count) on the \(y -\)axis.

Step2: Locate the bin for Anabelle's score

Anabelle scored \(60\). Looking at the \(x -\)axis, the bin \(60 - 70\) (assuming the bins are of width \(10\) as \(50 - 60\), \(60 - 70\), etc.) is the appropriate bin. Since \(60\) is the lower - bound of the \(60 - 70\) bin (and in a histogram, if the bin is of the form \(a\leq x < b\), for \(x = 60\), it goes to \(60 - 70\)).

Step3: Calculate the number of students with less than \(70\)

The number of students in the \(50 - 60\) bin is \(1\) and in the \(60 - 70\) bin is \(4\). Using addition \(1 + 4=5\).

Answer:

The data in the histogram is quantitative. Anabelle's score should be added to bin \(60 - 70\). The total number of students who scored less than a \(70\) is \(5\).
