QUESTION:
Die rolls Imagine rolling a fair, six-sided die 60 times. Draw a plausible graph of the distribution of die rolls. Should you use a bar graph or a histogram to display the data?
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
It is imagined rolling a fair, six-sided die 60 times.
When a die is rolled, the plausible number of outcomes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
The problem requires drawing a plausible graph of the distribution of die rolls. It is to determine which one is appropriate: a bar graph or a histogram to display the data.
A bar graph is appropriate in such cases where the need is to compare the discrete variables. On the other hand, histogram is appropriate where there is need to discuss the distribution of the non-discrete variables.
