number of pets for each student in Mr Bernhardt's class,

the image below shows a horizontal bar chart with zero going towards #4 on the bottom of the graph, the amount of students with zero pets is 2,the amount of students with one pet is 3, the amount of students with two pets is 4, the amount of students with three pets is 3, the amount of students with four pets is two.

the number of pets for each student in Ms Daniels class, zero students have 0 pets,students with one pet is 4, students with two pets is 3, the amount of students with three pets is 4, the amount of students with four pets is zero.

Compare the graphs showing the number of pets each student in Mr. Bernhardt’s and Ms. Daniel’s classes has. In 1 simple sentence, state whether the distributions are symmetric and provide at least two similarities and two differences

.use a small sentence to explain, no calculations, just an explanation on how you got the answer, and what the answer is

1 answer

The distributions are not symmetric.

Similarities: Both classes have the highest number of students with one pet, and both classes show a decrease in the number of students as the number of pets increases to four.

Differences: Mr. Bernhardt's class has students with zero pets, while Ms. Daniels' class does not. Additionally, Ms. Daniels' class has more students with three pets compared to Mr. Bernhardt's class.

I determined the symmetry by observing the frequency of pets each student has, noting that Mr. Bernhardt's distribution has a peak and tails on both sides, while Ms. Daniels' distribution is skewed with no students having zero or four pets.
