At the beginning of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Department of Health used a graph to represent the prediction of the number of active cases, if no interventions were made. The vertical axis gives the number of active cases and the horizontal axis shows the number of days since the start of the pandemic. Pennsylvania residents were asked to quarantine to flatten the curve of the graph that rep- resented the number of active infections. Which of the following statements are true? Select all that apply. A Flattening the curve would represented a vertical compression of the graph of the data. B Flattening the curve would be a horizontal stretch of the graph of the data. с When reading statistics reported in reputable news sources, it is beneficial to under- stand data measurement vocabulary.
