Select the correct answer.

Fiona has to plot a histogram of the given data.
[tex][tex]$82, 83, 89, 67, 65, 88, 66, 69, 83, 81, 94, 68, 82, 69, 86, 83, 88, 62, 64, 93$[/tex][/tex]

Which frequency table should she use for the histogram?

A.
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline Interval & [tex][tex]$60-70$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$70-80$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$80-90$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$90-100$[/tex][/tex] \\
\hline Frequency & 8 & 0 & 10 & 2 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

B.
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline Interval & [tex][tex]$56-63$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$63-70$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$70-77$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$77-84$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$84-91$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$91-98$[/tex][/tex] \\
\hline Frequency & 1 & 7 & 0 & 5 & 5 & 2 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

C.
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline Interval & [tex][tex]$50-70$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$70-80$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$80-85$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$85-90$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$90-100$[/tex][/tex] \\
\hline Frequency & 8 & 0 & 6 & 4 & 2 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

D.
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|}
\hline Interval & [tex][tex]$60-75$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$75-90$[/tex][/tex] & [tex][tex]$90-105$[/tex][/tex] \\
\hline Frequency & 8 & 10 & 2 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}



Answer :

To solve the problem of determining the correct frequency table for plotting a histogram, let's categorize the given data set into suitable intervals. The data set is as follows:

[tex]\[82, 83, 89, 67, 65, 88, 66, 69, 83, 81, 94, 68, 82, 69, 86, 83, 88, 62, 64, 93\][/tex]

Next, we'll allocate these numbers into the intervals:

1. Interval 60-70:
- Numbers: 67, 65, 66, 69, 68, 69, 62, 64
- Count: 8

2. Interval 70-80:
- Numbers: None
- Count: 0

3. Interval 80-90:
- Numbers: 82, 83, 89, 83, 81, 82, 86, 83, 88, 88
- Count: 10

4. Interval 90-100:
- Numbers: 94, 93
- Count: 2

From these counts, we construct the frequency table:

[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text{Interval} & 60-70 & 70-80 & 80-90 & 90-100 \\ \hline \text{Frequency} & 8 & 0 & 10 & 2 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]

Hence, Fiona should use the following frequency table for the histogram:

[tex]\[ \text{Option A:} \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text{Interval} & 60-70 & 70-80 & 80-90 & 90-100 \\ \hline \text{Frequency} & 8 & 0 & 10 & 2 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]
