A:
1:
A - actually not true, a probability plot would be better
B - not true, since exact values are plotted a box-and-whisker would be better
C - true (that's what a histogram does)
D - True (You can get the measures of central tendency quickly)

2:
A - true
B - False - those are easily found
C - False - They are arranged on the x-axis
D - True - see above
