Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bar graphs are most commonly used to depict frequency distributions and represent categorical variables. Each bar corresponds to a category and its length corresponds to the frequency or percentage of cases in that category. Bar graphs can be used with nominal, ordinal, or interval level variables, but not ratio level variables. The bars in a bar graph typically touch each other and are evenly spaced horizontally.
