Question

During the 2014 regular season, the Toronto Blue Jays hit a combined total of 177 home runs. The dot plot and frequency polygon display the distribution of home runs for all players who hit at least one home run during the 2014 regular season. Both graphs use the same data, but each presents the data in a different way. What advantages does this dot plot have over this frequency polygon? The sample size can be determined. The maximum and minimum values can be identified. The entire data set can be recreated using only the graph. The number of players who hit at least 25 home runs can be determined. The skewness of the distribution can be seen.

Explanation / Answer

a)Clearly we can count the number of instances and the number of homeruns->True

b)Maximum and minimum can be identified->Due to dots on the scale. But this can also be done in the frequency plot->False

c)Yes, dot plot has an advantage->true

d)This can also be done using the frequency->False

e)Skewness can be seen well with the frequency plot than the dot plot->False
