According to the bar graph displayed, the variation in monthly electric charges seems significant due to the scaling applied.

When scaling, narrower intervals on the axis result in a more pronounced graph, which emphasizes the differences among the graph's components.

On the other hand, wider axis intervals result in a smaller graph with diminished emphasis on the differences among its components.

Therefore, to lessen the perceived difference in monthly electric costs, we can expand the intervals on the y-axis.For instance, 'The y-axis could be adjusted to use intervals of 20.'

The correct choice is A) The scale on the y-axis could change to range from 0–150.

Because the y-axis begins at 95, it gives the impression that the change is substantial, but in reality, it isn't.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It has been established that the count of drivers traveling between a specific origin and destination in a certain time frame follows a Poisson distribution with a mean μ = 20 (as indicated in the article "Dynamic Ride Sharing: Theory and Practice"†).
