For each histogram answer the following In what measurement
For each histogram, answer the following. In what measurement class does the median occur? Describe the distribution of the data.
Solution
1) first add the frequencies of each class
3 + 6 + 1 + 2 + 1/2 = 12.5
there are 12.5 miles total
so median will occur at 6
6 data value is located at 1000-1500 measurement class
2) add all teh frequencies of each class
2 + 4 + 7 + 5 + 14 + 11 + 4 + 4 = 51
so middle value is 26th data value
26th value doesnt occur in any class
so there is no measurement class
