Final answer:
I need the actual data for "Days on Market" to construct a frequency distribution and histogram and to determine the correct histogram from options A, B, or C.
This correct answer is none of the above.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question revolves around the creation of a frequency distribution and a histogram for a set of data related to Days on Market for 36 homes.
To construct a histogram, one would first need to determine the range of the data, split the range into equal-width intervals (also known as bins), and then count how many data points fall into each bin to determine frequencies.
The central point of a bin (also called the midpoint) is the average of the bin's lower and upper limits.
For the Days on Market data, assuming we have the data points and have decided on the number of bins, we would:
Calculate the range of the data by subtracting the smallest value from the largest value.
Divide the range by the desired number of bins to find the width of each bin.
Establish round bin limits to determine the intervals.
Count the number of homes in each interval to find the frequency for each bin.
Plot the frequencies on the y-axis and the intervals on the x-axis to create the histogram.
When constructing a histogram for median household income, the better choice would indeed be a histogram over a bar graph, as we are dealing with continuous data that falls into natural intervals.
If information about the color of cars is collected, a bar graph would be more suitable than a histogram since the data is categorical, not continuous.
Interpreting the percentile scores means that a score in the 80th percentile in math indicates the student scored higher than 80% of her peers in her grade level, and similarly, a 76th percentile score in reading indicates she scored higher than 76% of her peers.
This correct answer is none of the above.
Your correct question is: Days on Market ( n=36 homes) (a1) Construct a frequency distribution and histogram, using nice (round) bin limits. (Round your "percent" answers to 1 decimal place.) (a2) Select a correct histogram for the above data. Histogram A O Histogram B Histogram C
