Answer 1

The correct answer would be 5)When your independent variable is qualitative, and your dependent variable is quantitative.

Answer 2

The correct option is;

5. When your independent variable is qualitative, and your dependent variable variable is quantitative

Explanation:

A bar graph is a graph that is used for the comparison of the measured values of different groups of items and are typically used for comparison of data that belong to different categories rather than for comparison of a continuous data set, such that the categories of the data are presented in columns of a particular category along the horizontal axis, while the vertical represents the measured value for each category

Therefore, given that the independent variable is normally presented along the horizontal axis, and the dependent variable is normally presented along the vertical axis, we have that the bar chart is best suited when the independent variable is qualitative and the dependent variable is quantitative.
