Answer to Question 1

Answer: E
Explanation: E) A bar chart portrays numbers with the height or length of its rectangular bars, making a series of numbers easy to grasp quickly. Bars can be oriented horizontally or vertically (in which case they are sometimes referred to as column charts). Bar charts are particularly valuable when you want to show or compare quantities over time.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: C) For certain kinds of information, the decision is usually obvious. If you want to present a large set of numeric values or detailed textual information, for example, a table is the obvious choice in most cases. Also, certain visuals are commonly used for certain applications; so, for example, your audience is likely to expect line charts and bar charts to show trends.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
