A pie chart is never, ever, appropriate for statistical tests. It can be a useful way of illustrating results but it has no usefulness in testing.

How would you determine the correct statistical test to use in a research study?

To determine the correct statistical test for a research study, first identify the type of data you have (e.g., nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio) and the research question you aim to address. Next, consider the number of groups being compared (e.g., one-sample, two-sample, or multiple groups) and whether the data meets assumptions like normality and homogeneity of variance. Finally, match your study design (e.g., independent vs. paired samples) with appropriate tests, such as t-tests for comparisons of means or chi-square tests for categorical data.

What is the statistical function that accurately measures what it is intended to measure?

Which type of chart is the least appropriate for depicting yearly rainfall totals for five cities for four years?

A pie chart would be the least appropriate for depicting yearly rainfall totals for five cities for four years because it is best suited for showing proportions of a whole, such as percentages. In this case, with multiple cities and years involved, a bar or line chart would be more effective at presenting the data clearly and allowing for easy comparison between cities and years.


What chart or graph would best represent data collected using representative sample?

The fact that the data are from a representative sample is irrelevant. What matters is the nature of the data that you have and the message that you want to convey to your viewers. If the data are qualitative then a bar or pie chart are probably the most appropriate. If they are quantitative, then any type of chart may be appropriate. It depends on the variables. If there are several observations on each member of the sample, then a stacked bar chart may be the right thing.
