QUESTION:

Births are not evenly distributed across the days of the week. Here are the average numbers of babies born on each day of the week in the United States in a recent year:

\(\begin{array}{lr} \hline \text { Day } & \text { Births } \\ \text { Sunday } & 7374 \\ \text { Monday } & 11,704 \\ \text { Tuesday } & 13,169 \\ \text { Wednesday } & 13,038 \\ \text { Thursday } & 13,013 \\ \text { Friday } & 12,664 \\ \text { Saturday } & 8459 \\ \hline \end{array}\)

(a) Present these data in a well-labeled bar graph. Would it also be correct to make a pie chart?

(b) Suggest some possible reasons why there are fewer births on weekends.
