Question 3.
In a village, there are 570 people who have cell phones. An NGO survey their cell phone usage. Based on this survey a histogram is drawn. Answer the following questions.
(i) How many people use the cell phone for less than 3 hours?
Solution:
330 people (110+ 220)
(ii) How many of them use the cell phone for more than 5 hours?
Solution:
150 of them (100 + 50)
(iii) Are people using cell phone for less than 1 hour?
Solution:
No.
(iv) Give your suggestions on the data.
Solution:
People should minimise the usage of cell phones.
Question 4.
Draw a histogram for the following data.
Solution:
The given data is continuous frequency distribution taking class intervals on X axis and No. of students on Y-axis, the histogram is given below.
Question 5.
Construct a histogram from the following distribution of total marks of 40 students in a class.
Solution:
The given distribution is continuous taking marks on X axis and No. of students on Y-axis the histogram is constructed.
Question 6.
The distribution of heights (in cm) of 100 people is given below. Construct a histogram and the frequency polygon imposed on it.
Question 7.
In a study of dental problem, the following data were obtained.
Represent the above data by a frequency polygon.
Solution:
Finding the midpoints of the class interval we get.
The points to be plotted are A (5,5), B (15, 13), C (25, 25), D (35, 14), E (45, 30), G (65, 43.), H (75, 50) to obtain the frequency polygon ZABCDEFGHI.
Where I imagined class between 80 and 90.
Question 8.
The marks obtained by 50 students in Mathematics are given below (i) Make a frequency distribution table taking a class size of 10 marks (ii) Draw a histogram and a frequency polygon.
Solution:
Maximum marks obtained = 89
Minimum marks obtained = 08
Range = Maximum marks – Minimum marks = 89 – 08 = 81
Taking the class size = 10, then
Now we have the continuous frequency table.
We will draw the histogram taking class interval in x axis and frequency in y axis as follows.
