A neighborhood is trying to set up school carpools, but they need to determine the number of students who need to travel to the elementary school (ages 5–10), the middle school (ages 11–13), and the high school (ages 14–18). A histogram summarizes their findings:

Histogram titled Carpool, with Number of Children on the y axis and Age Groups on the x axis. Bar 1 is 5 to 10 years old and has a value of 6. Bar 2 is 11 to 13 years old and has a value of 7. Bar 3 is 14 to 18 years old and has a value of 2.

Which of the following data sets is represented in the histogram?

{6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 2, 2}
{11, 11, 12, 5, 10, 7, 10, 8, 6, 11, 11, 12, 18, 14, 13}
{6, 5, 10, 12, 11, 7, 2, 14, 18}
{6, 14, 6, 8, 8, 19, 11, 12, 13, 10, 4}

Answer:

The second data set is presented in the given histogram.

Explanation:

We can be a frequency table that represents that histogram

Intervals Frequency

5 - 10 6

11 - 13 7

14 - 18 2

Notice that the data set {11, 11, 12, 5, 10, 7, 10, 8, 6, 11, 11, 12, 18, 14, 13} is the one showed in the histogram, becauase it has 6 items from 5 to 10, 7 items from 11 to 13 and 2 items from 14 and 18.

Therefore, the right answer is the second data set.
