Question

The population of ages at inauguration of all U.S. Presidents who had professions in the military is​ 62, 46,​ 68, 64, 57. Why does it not make sense to construct a histogram for this data​ set?

Answer 1

Answer: You only have 5 samples, always when you want to do statistics, you need a large sample size.

let's suppose you throw a dice 5 times, the results that it shows are 1,4,2,1,4. If you make statistics whit that numbers, you will think that the 1 and 4 have a bigger possibility than the other numbers, but that can't be, if you throw the dice enough times you will se that all numbers have the same possibility.
