Agraphical method that can be used to show both the rank order and shape of a distribution of data simultaneously is a a. stem-and-leaf display. b. pie chart. c. relative frequency distribution. d. dot plot.

a. stem-and-leaf display.

Explanation:

A stem and leaf display is a type of graphical methos that involved using a table to show a stem and then leafs to that stem that provide both the rank and shape of a distribution of data simultaneouly, for example you have the next table:

Steam        Leaf

30                11, 34, 23

40                12,40,23

50                 11,24,36

So the stem is the first number to show and the leaf are the complementaries than can happen: 3011, 3035, 3023, 4012,4040, 4023, 5011,5024, 5036, and like that is how you use a stem and leaf display.

south, because if you took a map you would see texas is directly in the middle of east and west, but it is also downwards towards mexico, therefore it is south
