Question

Determine the size of the interval used in the histogram using the data below.

Time needed to head a frozen dinner in the microwave (min)
4:30 5:30 7:00 4:45 5:20 8:00 3:45 2:30 6:40 6:00 4:30
5:25. Use the histogram below in the attachment and explain how you figured out the interval size.

Answer 1

Size of interval is 2 minutes

Explanation:

Minimum value in the histogram is 2.30 and highest is 8.00, we can see from the data that from 2 - 4 there is only two values as 2.30 and 3:45 means 2 frequency further from 8 - 10 only one value as 8.00 means 1 frequency.

Thus, it concluded that the intervals are given as :

0 - 2

2 - 4

4 - 6

6 - 8

8 - 10

In this range first value is inclusive only.
