green: 70

red: 33

yellow: 43

Question

A data set consists of $173$ colors. The bar graph shows the number of times each color appears in the data set. Which color appears $70$ times?

Accepted Answer

Choice B is correct. It's given that a data set consists of 173 colors and the bar graph shows the number of times each color appears in the data set. Therefore, for each color specified at the bottom of the bar, the frequency corresponds to the number of times that color appears in the data set. The color that appears 70 times in the data set has a frequency of 70 on the bar graph. Since the bar with a frequency of 70 corresponds to green, green is the color that appears 70 times. Choice A is incorrect. The color blue appears about 27 times, not 70 times. Choice C is incorrect. The color red appears about 33 times, not 70 times. Choice D is incorrect. The color yellow appears about 43 times, not 70 times.
