A card store sells greeting cards that range from less than $1 to $10. The histogram below shows the distribution of cards throughout several price ranges and was determined to be the most accurate way of representing these data.​

Hello, I do not see a question nor a histogram for the statement/info provided. I am assuming that the question that you are referring to is "Which of these most likely describes the data shown in the histogram?"

Answer:

The correct answer would be: A, The cards are grouped into five intervals according to price. The prices of the cards vary within each interval, and the highest frequency is 21.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the histogram (below), you can observe that the highest frequency for the diagram is in fact 21, so you can eliminate answer options B and D.

You are left with either A or C, but you can tell that C is wrong as it states "The prices of the cards are limited to a few whole number values", but in truth the histogram displays values that are decimals, the prices of the cards vary within each interval.

Hope this helps!
