The following answers (codes) to the question were received from a sample of 40 respondents: 1 3 2 3 3 2 2 3 4 1 2 2 4 4 2 3 3 4 5 2 4 4 1 2 5 3 4 4 1 1 2 5 1 2 3 3 2 4 5 5 1. State the type of the data 2. Present the data in a suitable graph. 3 Calculate one measure which is appropriate for these data.

the required function is .

step-by-step explanation:

from the given table it is noticed that the graph passing through (-3,7), (0,4), (3,1) and (8,-4).

it is a linear function because the value of y is decrease by one as the value of x increase by 1.

the slope of the function is

the slope of the function is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.

the slope intercept form is

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

therefore the required function is . the graph of this function is shown below.
