General Statistics: Ch 2 Test
Construct the cumulative frequency distribution that corresponds to the given frequency distribution.
5 (+5)
7 (5 + 2)
12 (5 + 2 + 5)
17 (5 + 2 + 5+ 5)
30 (5 + 2 + 5 + 5 + 13)
Construct the cumulative frequency distribution that corresponds to the given frequency distribution.
19 (+19)
36 (19 + 17)
51 (19 + 17 + 15)
71 (19 + 17 + 15 + 20)
80 (19 + 17 + 15 + 20 + 9)
Provide an appropriate response.
The frequency distribution below summarizes employee years of service for Alpha Corporation.
Find the class boundaries for class 26-30.
25.5, 30.5
Provide an appropriate response.
The histogram below represents the number of television sets per household for a sample of U.S.households.
How many households are included in the histogram?
100
sum total of frequencies
= (20 + 50 + 15 + 10 + 5)
Provide an appropriate response.
The frequency distribution below summarizes employee years of service for Alpha Corporation.
Find the class midpoint for class 1-5.
3.0
midpoint = (1 + 5) ÷ 2 = 3.0
Provide an appropriate response.
Sturges' guideline suggests that when constructing a frequency distribution, the ideal number of classes can be approximated by 1 + (log n)/(log 2), where n is the number of data values.
Use this guideline to find the ideal number of classes when the number of data values is 146.
8
1 + ( log(146) ) ÷ ( log(2) )
= 8.2
Use the given paired data to construct a scatterplot.
Solve the problem.
At the National Criminologists Association's annual convention, participants filled out a questionnaire asking what they thought was the most important cause for criminal behavior. The tally was as follows.
Construct a Pareto chart to display these findings.
Construct the dotplot for the given data.
