The mean and median are almost the same and the mode is very close to them as well so this can tell me that the distribution should be almost symmetrical.
I believe that the first graph illustrates the data the best in a way you can read it the easiest. Right away I noticed the peak towards the middle of the graph. The distribution looks almost normal with the peak just to the left a little bit.
I don't really like the pie graph for this data. It seems a bit confusing at first glance to me. The histogram and the line graph both show you where the peak is and shows you a better illustration of the distribution. You can even kind of see a gap in the histogram and line graph at 500-599 but you cannot see this on the pie chart.
Doing this project actually taught me a lot about analyzing data sets and graphs. I think what surprised me the most is how symmetrical the distribution was for this data. I did not expect such symmetry for a random data set I gathered online.]]> 2020-11-16 23:35:13 UTC https://padlet.com/brookearms777/Incarcerationrates/wish/929653540
