question 71

Essay

Provide an appropriate response.
-Suppose that a histogram is constructed for the frequency table shown below:
$$\begin{array} { c | c } \text { Age } & \text { Frequency } \\\hline 30 - 39 & 11 \\40 - 49 & 23 \\50 - 59 & 17 \\60 - 69 & 12 \\70 - 89 & 6\end{array}$$
The class 60-69 has twice the frequency of the class 70-89. In the histogram, will the area of the bar for the class 60-69 be twice the area of the bar for the class 70-89? In other words, will areas be proportional to frequencies in this histogram? Explain your thinking. Are there any conditions under which areas are proportional to frequencies in histograms?
