Driving would be more pleasant if we didn't have to put up with the bad habits of other drivers. A newspaper reported the results of a Valvoline Oil Company survey of 500 drivers in which the drivers marked their complaints about other drivers. The top complaints turned out to be tailgating, marked by 24% of the respondents; not using turn signals, marked by 20%; being cut off, marked by 13%; other drivers driving too slowly, marked by 10%; and other drivers being inconsiderate marked by 5%. (a) Make a Pareto chart showing percentage of drivers listing each stated complaint. (choose one of the options) (b) Could this information as reported be put in a circle graph? A. Since the percentages do not add to 100%, a circle graph cannot be used. If we create an "other" category and assume that all other respondents fit this category, then a circle could be created. B. Since the percentages add to 100%, a circle graph can be used. C. Since the categories overlap, a circle graph cannot be used. D. Since the percentages do not add to 100%, a circle graph cannot be used and there is no way to adjust the categories.

Question
Driving would be more pleasant if we didn't have to put up with the bad habits of other drivers. A newspaper reported the results of a Valvoline Oil Company survey of 500 drivers in which the drivers marked their complaints about other drivers.
The top complaints turned out to be tailgating, marked by 24% of the respondents; not using turn signals, marked by 20%; being cut off, marked by 13%; other drivers driving too slowly, marked by 10%; and other drivers being inconsiderate marked by 5%.
(a) Make a Pareto chart showing percentage of drivers listing each stated complaint. (choose one of the options)
(b) Could this information as reported be put in a circle graph?
A. Since the percentages do not add to 100%, a circle graph cannot be used. If we create an "other" category and assume that all other respondents fit this category, then a circle could be created.
B. Since the percentages add to 100%, a circle graph can be used.
C. Since the categories overlap, a circle graph cannot be used.
D. Since the percentages do not add to 100%, a circle graph cannot be used and there is no way to adjust the categories.
