To show: The graph type that should not be used to display the data.
Answer to Problem 5PTTS
The graph type that should not be used to display the data is A stem and a leaf plot.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
A scientist records the lengths of the tails of 45 spider monkeys.
Since,
A stem and a leaf plot is a special table where each data value is split into a “stem” (the first digit or digits) and a “leaf” (usually the last digit).
It is not possible to recordthe lengths of the tails of 45 spider monkeys
Therefore,
The graph type that should not be used to display the data is A stem and a leaf plot.
Hence, the graph type that should not be used to display the data is A stem and a leaf plot.
