Question

the table shows the average cost of a gallon of regular gas in various countries during the summer. construct a bar graph of these data.

\

$$\begin{tabular}{|c|c|} \\hline country & price per gallon of regular gasoline \\\\ \\hline a & \\$4.22 \\\\ \\hline b & \\$4.00 \\\\ \\hline c & \\$2.64 \\\\ \\hline d & \\$6.45 \\\\ \\hline e & \\$7.50 \\\\ \\hline f & \\$3.90 \\\\ \\hline \\end{tabular}$$

Explanation:

⚡ Using what you learned: displaying data: bar graphs & circle graphs

Step 1: Analyze the data table

Identify the values for each country:

• A: \$4.22
• B: \$4.00
• C: \$2.64
• D: \$6.45
• E: \$7.50
• F: \$3.90

Step 2: Compare values with the graph options

Examine the heights of the bars for each country in the given options:

• Option A:
• Bar E is at \$7.50 (clearly higher than Bar D).
• Bar D is at approximately \$6.45.
• Bar F is just under \$4.00 (at \$3.90).

• Option B:
• Bar E and Bar F are shown with almost equal heights near \$7.50, which is incorrect because Country **F** is \$3.90.

• Option C:
• Bar D is shown as shorter than Bar C, which is incorrect because \$6.45 is greater than \$2.64.

Thus, Option A correctly represents all the data points.

Answer:

A
