Answer 2

The correct answer is:

Explanation:

The survey is given as:

Pet Frequency

Cats 3

Dogs 2

Rabbits 1

Guinea Pigs 2

When we will draw a line plot where the horizontal axis denote the pet and the cross above the pet represent the number of pets.

Hence, as the frequency of cat is three so there will be three cross above cat.

Similarly as the frequency of dogs is two so there will be two cross above dogs.

the frequency of rabbits is one so there will be one cross above rabbit.

the frequency of Guinea Pigs is two so there will be two cross above Guinea Pigs.
