Question

collecting and organizing data
dan gave five sunflower seedlings each a different type of fertilizer. he measured the initial and final heights of each plant after a month, then calculated the total growth of each one in centimeters. which is the best method for visually representing the data for comparison?
bar graph
pie graph
data table
venn diagram

Explanation:

To visually compare the total growth (in cm) of five sunflower seedlings with different fertilizers, a bar graph is ideal. Bar graphs are used to compare discrete categories (each seedling/fertilizer type) by showing the magnitude of a variable (growth) for each category. A pie graph shows proportions of a whole, a data table is for organizing data (not visual comparison), and a Venn diagram shows set relationships, so they don’t fit here.

Answer:

bar graph
