Document Summary

Explains how to organize and display data using tables and graphs. How to prepare frequency distribution tables for qualitative and quantitative data; How to construct bar graphs, pie charts, histograms, and polygons for such data; Data recorded in the sequence in which they are collected and before they are processed or ranked are called raw data. Table 2. 3 worries about not having enough money to pay normal monthly bills. A frequency distribution of a qualitative variable lists all categories and the number of elements that belong to each of these categories. their favourite. A sample of 30 persons who often consume donuts were asked what variety of donuts is. The responses from these 30 persons are as follows: Determine the relative frequency and percentage distributions for the data in table 2. 4. Case study 2-1 ideological composition of the u. s. public, 2014. A graph made of bars whose heights represent the frequencies of respective categories is called a bar graph.
