A teacher has asked all the students in the class which data visualizer he will use to show relationship between their scores and number of subjects. Which of the following is the best way to display the frequency of each day of the week?
A. Histogram
B. Scatterplot
C. Pie graph
D. Bar graph
Histograms are used to present frequency of data of one variable over the other. On the other hand, a bar graph is used to compare the two variables with the rectangles not touching one another as in histograms.
