In the Aloha state, you are very unlikely to be murdered! However, it is considerably more likely that your house might be burgled, your car might be stolen, or you might be punched in the nose. That said, Hawaii is still a great place for a vacation or, if you are very lucky, to live. The following numbers represent the crime rates per 100,000 population in Hawaii: murder, 3.6; rape, 29.4; robbery, 79.3; house burglary, 867.6; motor vehicle theft, 531.7; assault, 118.3.
Could the information as reported be displayed as a circle graph? Explain. Hint: Other forms of crime, such as arson, are not included in the information. In addition, some crimes might occur together.
