Line plots are used to figure out how much of one value is in a set of data.

Histograms are used to show/compare data in what seems like a bar graph, but instead it used to compare data over a period of time, number of a value, ect. ( intervals)

What is the difference between graph and histogram?

A histogram is a very specific type of graph. A histogram is used in statistics to plot grouped data. It is in the form of a bar chart in which the bar widths represent the class intervals and the bar heights represent the frequency densities. As a result, the area of each bar is proportional to the frequency.

What is the difference between a dot plot and a histogram?

A dot plot displays individual data points as dots along a number line, allowing for clear visualization of small data sets and their frequencies. In contrast, a histogram groups data into bins or intervals and represents the frequency of data points within each bin using bars, which is useful for larger data sets and for illustrating data distribution. While both visualize frequency, dot plots emphasize individual values, whereas histograms focus on overall patterns and distributions.


What information is found in a histogram and not in a box-and-whiskers plot?

The answer will depend on the histogram. If the histogram consists of four intervals whose boundaries are the quartiles of the distribution, then it will contain exactly the same information.
