In the construction of a frequency distribution, it is a good idea to have overlapping class limits, such as 10-20, 20-30, 30-40.

• True

• False

The type of graph used to represent data is determined by the type of data collected and by the researcher's purpose.

• True

• False

Except for rounding errors, relative frequencies should add up to what sum?

• 0

• 1

(b) midpoints of the first class

(c) boundaries of the first class

• (a) 3

  (b) 51

  (c) 50 - 52

• (a) 2

  (b) 51.5

  (c) 50 - 52

• (a) 3

  (b) 51

  (c) 49.5 - 52.5

• (a) 2

  (b) 51.5

  (c) 49.5 - 52.5

Use the ogive to approximate the number in the sample.
