test scores of mrs. smiths algebra 1 class
which of the following could be the highest score on the test?
o 93
o 100
o 96
o 87

Explanation:

Question 8

In a histogram, the bars are adjacent (touching) but not connected horizontally. Bar graphs (where categories are non - numerical and discrete) have bars that are separated. Histograms represent numerical data where the bars are adjacent to show the continuity of the data intervals.

Looking at the x - axis of the histogram, the last interval is \(88.00 - 95.00\). The highest score in a histogram is within the upper - bound of the last interval. Among the options:

• 87 is in the \(81.00 - 88.00\) interval.
• 93 is in the \(88.00 - 95.00\) interval.
• 96 and 100 are above the upper - bound of the last interval (\(95.00\)) shown in the histogram.

Answer:

False
