The following data set shows the pulse rate of some horses at a farm:

35, 38, 33, 39, 39, 40, 33, 39, 37, 33, 40, 34, 38, 35, 39

Which dot plot best represents the data? (1 point)


dot plot with 3 dots over 33, 1 dot over 34, 2 dots over 35, no dot over 36, 1 dot over 37, 2 dots over 38, 4 dots over 39, and

Answer 1

first answer choice...because u will notice that the last 3 answer choices say there is 1 dot over 36....there is not even a 36 in your data

Answer 2

Option 1

Data plot with 3 dots over 33, 1 dot over 34, 2 dots over 35, no dot over 36, 1 dot over 37, 2 dots over 38, 4 dots over 39, and 2 dot over 40.

Explanation:

Given : The following data set shows the pulse rate of some horses at a farm:

35, 38, 33, 39, 39, 40, 33, 39, 37, 33, 40, 34, 38, 35, 39

To find : Which dot plot best represents the data?

Solution :

We create the table and plot the dot plot data.

Pulse rate of some horses number of dots

33 3

34 1

35 2

36 0

37 1

38 2

39 4

40 2

Data plot with 3 dots over 33, 1 dot over 34, 2 dots over 35, no dot over 36, 1 dot over 37, 2 dots over 38, 4 dots over 39, and 2 dot over 40.

Option 1 represent the correct data but 2 over 40 is missing in that.

Rest 2,3,4 options were incorrect.
