Question:
What is the best way to present data? Why?
Through different graphic representation of data, it’s easy for us to read and
identify the different data sets. But
histogram
can be used as the best way to present
the data because it provides visual representation of numerical data with its y- axis and
x-axis format. Y axis or the vertical lines labeled as either frequency or relative
frequency while the x-axis or the horizontal axis is labeled with what the data
represents the interval set by the data.
Histogram also shows where the data falls within the corresponding range of
values that’s why it is more convenient to eye because the graph will have the same
vertically rectangle shape with a label that you can easily identify the differences of
your data sets. It also analyzes large data sets by reducing the number of graphs into
only one graph. And based on my observations, histogram shows an accurate
comparison of the data which is actually a bar chart that shows how the data is being
distributed and helps us determine the pattern of frequencies. It doesn’t even confuse
us by looking at the graph because it is very easy and simple, w e used this graph for
groups of numbers according to how often they appear. Like for example, when we
consider the set {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 15, 17, 19, 20, 20, 27, 29, 29} it will indicate to the
graph how the data range is being distributed. When a graph shows how many ones,
