Find an example of a Health or Medicine bar graph
and a histogram arising from data in that area. For
your example, use the bar graph and the histogram to
explain what the data being represented is for the bar
graph and the histogram. Note: keep in mind that
bar graphs arise from qualitative data while
histograms arise from quantitative data, and that
the vertical axis always represents either a
frequency or relative frequency.
For the bar graph, determine if it is a Pareto Chart or
not. For the histogram, comment in a sentence on the
shape of the distribution.

Expert Solution
Step 1

The one-dimensional diagrams (charts) used for graphical presentation of data sets areas follows:

  • Simple Bar Diagrams
  • Frequency Polygon
  • Frequency Curve
  • Pie Diagram
  • Histograms

Bar Diagram

A diagrammatic representation for depicting the frequency from a distribution by summarizing the data in terms of relative frequency distribution

Histogram

The histograms represent both grouped and ungrouped data. Characteristic is represented on horizontal axis and its frequency is represented as vertical axis. These boxed or rectangles represent each class observations.

Pareto Chart

The pareto charts are similar to the bar diagrams but longest bars are represented towards the left and shortest towards the right. This depicts the significance of the characteristic values.
