Continuous Probability Distributions
Probability distributions are of two types, which are continuous probability distributions and discrete probability distributions. A continuous probability distribution contains an infinite number of values. For example, if time is infinite: you could co…

To determine

The comparison that is useful for the local newspapers distributions of SAT scores.

  1. Back to back stemplotes A and B.
  2. A scatter plot of A verse B.
  3. Two dotplots for A and B drawn on the same rule.
  4. Two relative frequency histograms of A and B drawn on the same rule.
  5. Two bar graphs for A and B drawn on the same scale.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem AP3.9CPT

The correct option is (d)two relative frequency histograms of A and B drawn on the same rule.

Explanation of Solution

Since both of the schools populations has the different number of students, the relative frequency histogram is standardize the number of people as per the individual school amd make it more efficient at the comparing populations as well as understanding.

The distribution understanding than the frequency histograms and infinitely better than a stemplotes.

So when as having the big data stem and leaf plots are not as much useful. SAT scores are numerical and ordinal a histogram would be much efficient and better.

Conclusion:

Hence, the correct option is (d)two relative frequency histograms of A and B drawn on the same rule.
