1. In April 3, 1974, thunderstorms began to roaring through the murky skies in the midwestern Us. Lightning had struck areas from the Gulf Coast all the to the Canadian border. Within the next few hours of the day, the impacted region that was surround by 490,000 acres was ravaged by more than one hundred tornadoes.

According to the bar graph F-3 tornado scales between April 3rd and the 4th of 1974. There were over 20% that the rest of the data. So far this is greater than 1%.

The intensity always increases. So, which mean that the peak moves to the right. By doing that it gets longer.

4.

Yes, because the tornado f4 and f5 from 1974 have over 85% deaths. This data is higher than the average of 70%.

5.

In the bar graph it shows that there is more death by tornados in rural areas than small communities, small cities, medium cities, and larger cities. There are unfortunately negative correlations because of the population of communities increase and the number of deaths decrease.

6. Base on my findings with the graphs and histograms. In conclusion the rural areas are

hit by tornados the hardest because of the weather conditions. And with the rural area being in the middle of no where or like countryside it is more likely for tornadoes to hit the area like a target. And sometimes there be more than one tornado in another rural area. And with f3, f4, and f5 being the most out of the rest the scales.

The wind speed is the cause of the deaths in rural areas.
