Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A histogram is specifically designed to represent a frequency distribution of numerical data using columns, where the height of each column represents the frequency or count of data falling within a particular interval or range. Scatter plots are used to show the relationship between two numerical variables, box-and-whisker plots are used to show the distribution of a dataset, and pie charts are used to represent the composition of different categories within a whole.
