Question
3 what is the relative frequency of ticket prices between $200–$249?
frequency distribution
| ticket prices | absolute frequency |
|---|---|
| $200–$249 | 7 |
| $250–$299 | 31 |
| $300–$349 | 34 |
| $350–$399 | 20 |
| $400–$449 | 6 |
| $450–$499 | 1 |
| totals | 100 |

options: 37, 75, 95, 8
Step1: Identify the relevant class
We need the relative frequency for ticket prices between $200 - $249. First, find the absolute frequency (frequency) for this class, which is 34 (from the table: $200 - $249 has frequency 34). The total number of observations (total frequency) is 100 (from the TOTALS row, absolute frequency total is 100).
Step2: Calculate relative frequency
Relative frequency is calculated as the frequency of the class divided by the total frequency. So, the formula is $\text{Relative Frequency} = \frac{\text{Frequency of the class}}{\text{Total Frequency}}$. Plugging in the values, we get $\frac{34}{100} = 0.34$? Wait, no, wait the question might be about cumulative relative frequency? Wait, maybe I misread. Wait, the classes: $150 - 199$: 1, $200 - 249$: 7? Wait no, the table is a bit unclear. Wait, let's re-express the table:
Wait the table has:
- $150 - 199$: Frequency 1
- $200 - 249$: Frequency 7? Wait no, maybe the first class is $150 - 199$ (1), then $200 - 249$ (7), $250 - 299$ (31), $300 - 349$ (34), $350 - 399$ (20), $400 - 449$ (6), $450 - 499$ (1). Total is 1+7+31+34+20+6+1 = 100.
Wait the question is "What is the relative frequency of ticket prices between $200 - $249?" Wait no, maybe "between $200 - $299"? Wait the options are 37, 75, 95, 8. Wait maybe cumulative relative frequency. Let's check cumulative frequency.
Wait cumulative frequency up to $249$: 1 (150-199) +7 (200-249) =8? No. Wait cumulative up to $299$: 1+7+31=39? No. Wait maybe the question is about "between $200 - $349"? Wait 7+31+34=72? No. Wait the options are 37,75,95,8. Wait maybe the class is $200 - $249? No, 7/100=0.07, not an option. Wait maybe the question is "relative frequency of ticket prices between $200 - $349" (7+31+34=72? No). Wait maybe the table is misread. Wait the TOTALS row says "100" for absolute frequency. Let's list the frequencies:
- $150 - 199$: 1
- $200 - 249$: 7
- $250 - 299$: 31
- $300 - 349$: 34
- $350 - 399$: 20
- $400 - 449$: 6
- $450 - 499$: 1
Now, let's check cumulative frequency:
- Up to $199$: 1
- Up to $249$: 1+7=8
- Up to $299$: 1+7+31=39
- Up to $349$: 1+7+31+34=73
- Up to $399$: 73+20=93
- Up to $449$: 93+6=99
- Up to $499$: 99+1=100
Wait the options are 37,75,95,8. Wait 8 is an option. Wait maybe the question is "relative frequency of ticket prices between $200 - $249"? Then 7/100=0.07, no. Wait maybe "between $200 - $299"? 7+31=38, 38/100=0.38, close to 37? Maybe a typo. Or maybe the frequency for $200 - 249$ is 8? Wait the table is a bit unclear. Wait the user's image: the table has "150-199:1", "200-249:7", "250-299:31", "300-349:34", "350-399:20", "400-449:6", "450-499:1". Total 100.
Wait the options are 37,75,95,8. Wait 8 is the cumulative frequency up to $249$ (1+7=8), so relative frequency would be 8/100=0.08, but 8 is an option. Maybe the question is "relative frequency" but the options are in percentage? Wait 8%? But 8 is an option. Alternatively, maybe the class is $200 - $349: 7+31+34=72, no. Wait maybe the question is "cumulative relative frequency" for a higher class. Wait up to $399$: 93, no. Up to $449$:99, no. Wait maybe the table has a different frequency. Wait maybe the $200 - 249$ frequency is 8? Then 8/100=0.08, 8 is an option. Maybe a typo in the table. So the answer is 8.
