Chapter CSB1.15, Problem 2E

(a)

To determine

Reason for the misleading of graph of distance v/s percentage of adult driver.

Answer to Problem 2E

Misleading of graph is cause by non uniform interval in the graph.

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Graph misleading:

Incorrect representation of a graph for making graph better by distorting it.

As the graph is having non-uniform interval i.e. 10,38,49,49,49,49 so there will be non uniform distribution of data and it will mislead the graph.

Conclusion:

As misleading of graph is cause by non uniform interval in the graph.

(b)

To determine

The correct graph of distance v/s percentage of adult driver.

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Graph misleading:

Incorrect representation of a graph for making graph better by distorting it.

  

This graph is correct as its interval is 49 on vertical scale.

Conclusion:

As misleading of graph is cause by non uniform interval in the graph so correct the interval of the graph.
