SPLK-1002 · Question #121
Which type of visualization shows relationships between discrete values in three dimensions?
The correct answer is C. Bubble chart. A bubble chart encodes three dimensions of data: x-axis position, y-axis position, and bubble size, making it ideal for showing relationships among discrete values across three variables.

Why each option
A bubble chart encodes three dimensions of data: x-axis position, y-axis position, and bubble size, making it ideal for showing relationships among discrete values across three variables.
A pie chart shows proportional relationships for a single variable divided into slices; it does not represent three dimensions.
A line chart shows trends over a continuous axis (usually time) in two dimensions and does not encode a third data dimension.
The bubble chart maps three data dimensions simultaneously - two positional axes plus a third dimension represented by the size of each bubble. This allows users to visualize relationships between three discrete or continuous value sets in a single chart, unlike scatter or line charts which are limited to two dimensions.
A scatter chart plots data points using only two axes (x and y) and does not represent a third dimension.
