Answer 2

The best graphical representation for the pediatrician's data would be a histogram. A histogram is a type of graph that shows the distribution of continuous data. In this case, the weights of the 14-year-olds would likely be continuous data. A histogram would allow the pediatrician to visualize the distribution of weights and identify any outliers or unusual patterns.
