In the context of constructing a frequency distribution, which statement best distinguishes class midpoints from class boundaries?
A survey records the number of books read by students during the summer: . Construct a frequency distribution using classes. Include class midpoints, relative frequencies, and cumulative frequencies.
A class has a frequency of 8 in a data set of 40 observations. What is the relative frequency as a percentage?
Construct a frequency distribution for the data given below about the magnitudes of recent earthquakes recorded worldwide. Can we conclude that the magnitudes appear to have a normal distribution?
A cumulative frequency ogive graph for the weights (in kilograms) of a group of students is given below. Use the graph to estimate the total number of students.
A researcher collects the cholesterol levels (in units of mg/dL) of a sample of adults. The data ranges from to . She considers two frequency distributions: one with a first class lower limit of and class width of , and another with class width of . Which frequency distribution is likely to provide a better summary of the cholesterol data? Explain.
What is the main purpose of constructing a frequency distribution before creating charts or graphs?
A meteorology team recorded the wind speeds (in km/h) of storms over a period of time. The frequency distribution of wind speeds is given below.
Using the frequency distribution above, find:
(i) The class limits of the first class
(ii) The class boundaries of the first class
(iii) The class midpoint of the first class
