Question

indie asks students at her school, \how many books did you read over the summer?\ the histogram shows the data. based on the histogram, what is the greatest number of books a student could have read over the summer? 10 11 14 15

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the histogram's class intervals

The class intervals on the x - axis are \(0 - 3\), \(3 - 6\), \(6 - 9\), \(9 - 12\), \(12 - 15\).

Step2: Determine the upper - bound of the last class interval

The last class interval is \(12 - 15\). In a histogram, when considering the maximum value in a class interval (assuming the data is continuous within the interval for the purpose of this question), the upper - bound of the interval \(12 - 15\) is \(14\) (if we assume non - inclusive upper - bound, for example, if the data is discrete and the interval is \(12\leq x<15\), the greatest whole number of books in this interval is \(14\)).

Answer:

14
