Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A time-series plot is typically used to display changes in a variable over time. However, the given data only represents the amount of detergent used in a single month for each car wash operation. Therefore, a time-series plot would not be an appropriate way to present this information. A bar graph or histogram may be more suitable for displaying the frequency distribution of the detergent usage in gallons across the 25 car wash operations.
