The histogram below shows the number of weeks Jimmy spent different amounts of money to fill the gas tank in his car. If the graph is redrawn so that the scale on the y-axis begins with zero, which aspect of the graph will change the most?

Question illustration
A
The difference in the heights of the bars will not appear as great.
B
The difference in the heights of the bars will be more pronounced.
C
The graph will appear more skewed to the left.
D
The graph will appear more skewed to the right.

T
The data point for x = 1 is above the line of best fit.
T
The residual value for x = 3 should be a positive number because the data point is above the line of best fit.
F
Fiona made a subtraction error when she computed the residual value for x = 4.
T
The residual value for x = 2 should be a positive number because the given point is above the line of best fit.
T
The residual value for x = 3 is negative because the given point is below the line of best fit.

The graph below shows the amount of time Misha spent outside over a 30-day period. How might the graph be considered misleading?

Question illustration
A
The x-scale is different from the y-scale.
B
The x-interval makes the data appear skewed.
C
The y-scale is too large for the data set.
D
The y-interval shows exponential increase rather than linear increase.

The histogram below shows the average number of days per year in 117 Oklahoma cities where the high temperature was greater than 90 degrees Fahrenheit.Which is an accurate comparison?

Question illustration
A
The mean is likely greater than the median because the data is skewed to the right.
B
The mean is likely greater than the median because the data is skewed to the left.
C
The median is likely greater than the mean because the data is skewed to the right.
D
The median is likely greater than the mean because the data is skewed to the left.

A number line going from 1 to 13. 1 dot is above 1. 3 dots are above 2. 1 dot is above 3. 3 dots are above 4. 1 dot is above 5. 0 dots are above the remaining numbers.

Question illustration
A
The mean will increase, and the median will stay the same.
B
The median will increase, and the mean will stay the same.
C
The mean will increase more than the median, but both will increase.
D
The median will increase more than the mean, but both will increase.

The graph shows the exponential regression model for data representing a rabbit population after x years.

Question illustration
T
The graph of the regression model is limited to whole-number values for x.
T
The graph of the regression model is limited to whole-number values for y.
T
The graph of the regression model cannot be used to approximate the population size for year 1.
T
The graph of the regression model can be used to predict the population size for any number of years in the future.
