Which is the best estimate of x based on rounding the constants and coefficients in the equation to the nearest integer? 3.1x + 5.2 = 9.9

 x =  ;  or, write as:  "1" ; 
                                                         
                                                            or; write as:  " 1.6667 " .

Explanation:
________________________________________________________

Given:  " 3.1 x + 5.2 = 9.9 " ; 

Round the:  " 3.1 x "  to:  " 3x " ; 

Round the:  " 5.2 "   to:  " 5 " ; 

Round the:  " 9.9 " to:  " 10 " ; 
____________________________________
And rewrite the equation as:
_____________________________________

  →    "  3x + 5 = 10 "  ; 
_____________________________________
Subtract "5" from each side of the equation: 

3x + 5 – 5 = 10 – 5 ; 

to get:
___________________________________________________
→   3x = 5 ; 
___________________________________________________
Divide each side of the equation by "3" ;
       to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;  

3x / 3 = 5 / 3 ; 

x = ;  or, write as:  "1" ; 

or; write as:  " 1.666666666666....  " ;  →  round to:  "1.6667" .

The major difference is that a histogram is only used to plot the frequency of score occurrences in a continuous data set that has been divided into classes, called bins.  bar charts, on the other hand, can be used for a great deal of other types ofvariables  including  ordinal  andnominal  data sets.
