question 30

Essay

Consider the frequency distribution below, which has single values as classes: $$\begin{array} { c | c } \text { Value } & \text { Frequency } \\\hline 10 & 1 \\11 & 3 \\12 & 7 \\13 & 18 \\14 & 10 \\15 & 4 \\16 & 2 \\17 & 7 \\18 & 16 \\19 & 10 \\20 & 6 \\21 & 2\end{array}$$ Construct a new frequency distribution for this data with 4 classes. Now, construct another frequency distribution for this data with 6 classes. Suppose that you construct a histogram corresponding to the original data and histograms corresponding to each of the new frequency distributions. Describe the shapes of the three histograms. Does the histogram with six classes capture the distribution of the data? Does the histogram with four classes capture the distribution of the data?
