Final answer:

An appropriate display for the data collected in the survey would be a bar graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

An appropriate display for the data collected in the survey would be a bar graph. A bar graph uses rectangular bars of equal width to represent different categories, in this case, different vegetables. The height of each bar corresponds to the number of students who prefer that vegetable. To create the bar graph, you would label the x-axis with the vegetable options (corn, carrots, green beans, sweet potatoes) and the y-axis with the number of students. Then, you would draw bars above each vegetable option with their respective heights: 17 for corn, 22 for carrots, 9 for green beans, and 7 for sweet potatoes.

A pie chart would be the best since you are breaking apart the amount of choices from the whole. (Corn, Carrots, Green beans sweet potatoes). If not a pie chart I suggest a bar graph.
