(it's at the bottom i think)

Which statement best describes the shape of the data?


a. It is symmetric and has no gaps.

b. It is not symmetric and has a peak at $5.00.

c. It is a cluster from $1.00 to $5.00 and has gaps.

d. It is a cluster from $1.00 to $5.00 and has a peak at $5.00.

Answer 1

3 dots above $5 + 3 dots above $6 = 6

so 6 babysitters earned $5 or $6 per hour

Explanation:

According to the information:

number of dots above 4 dollar=2

number of dots above 5 dollar=3

number of dots above 6 dollar=3

number of dots above 7 dollar=2

Hence, the number of babysitters earned $5 or $6=3+3=6
