Solution

The statement that is NOT valid about different graphical displays is: "Boxplots are useful for identifying when there are multiple modes".

Boxplots are great for visualizing the distribution of data and identifying outliers, but they do not show modes. A mode in a dataset is the value that appears most frequently, and a dataset can have one mode (unimodal), two modes (bimodal), or multiple modes (multimodal). Boxplots, however, do not provide information about the frequency of individual data points, so they cannot be used to identify modes. Histograms or bar charts are more suitable for this purpose.
