How many hours do kids spend with their friends?

Good graph

Good graph-reason

• This is my good graph (a histogram) because it
  answers my question and is most easily seen.
  Also, since my range of numbers went from 0 to 90
  and my range of numbers is right after each
  other. There
• are not many reasons that you
• would use a histogram, but
• my question fits the graph.

This is my ok graph

Not appropriate graph
6
Bad graph-reason

• This is my least appropriate graph. It is this
  because it does not tell you what you need to
  know. By that I mean it does not tell you the
  value of each segment how many hours, which is
  the question that I asked.
• This graph should be used when you are not
  trying to be so exact - just trying to show
  people the majority.

What is Typical about my data

What is Typical about my data is that
kids spend a lot of time with their friends but
as you get more hours less and less kids spend
time with their friends. There is a random burst
of kids in the 71 to 80 range. If this was not
there I would be correct.
