Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:The statement that is true about dot plot is:A dot plot shows the frequency of the individual values of any given data set.Step-by-step explanation:A dot plot also known as a dot chart or a strip plot is just a display of the data depending upon the frequency of the values.The dot plot is somewhat like the histogram but the difference is:A histogram shows the frequency of an interval of values of any given data set.       for example:    we may make a histogram for the weight of students of a class.    since we may divide the weight of the students into some interval.whereas the dot plot gives the frequency of the individual data points or discrete data points.        for example:       we may plot a dot plot for rolling a number cube 20 times.Hence, the correct statement is:A dot plot shows the frequency of the individual values or of any given data set.
