(the desmos lesson is tomorrow.) use the pen/pencil tool at the top of the page or insert a screenshot from your notebook paper.
Step1: Analyze the data for each interval
First, we list out the data points: 195, 206, 100, 98, 150, 210, 195, 106, 195, 108, 180, 212, 104, 195, 100, 216, 99, 206, 116, 142, 100, 135, 98, 160.
Interval 51 - 100:
We count the numbers less than or equal to 100. The numbers are 100, 98, 100, 99, 100, 98. So that's 6 numbers. So frequency is 6, cumulative frequency is 6 (since it's the first interval, cumulative frequency = frequency).
Interval 100 - 150:
We count the numbers greater than 100 and less than or equal to 150. The numbers are 106, 108, 104, 116, 142, 135. Wait, wait, no: Wait, 100 is included in 51 - 100? Wait, the interval is 51 - 100, so 100 is in 51 - 100? Wait, maybe the intervals are exclusive on the upper end? Wait, the given table has 51 - 100, 100 - 150, etc. So maybe it's 51 ≤ x ≤ 100, 100 < x ≤ 150, 150 < x ≤ 200, 200 < x ≤ 250. Let's re - check.
For 51 - 100 (inclusive): 98, 98, 99, 100, 100, 100. That's 6 numbers (98, 98, 99, 100, 100, 100).
For 100 - 150 (exclusive of 100, inclusive of 150): 104, 106, 108, 116, 135, 142. Wait, 150 is in the next interval? Wait, 150 is in 150 - 200? Wait, the given table has 150 - 200. Let's check the data point 150. So 100 - 150: numbers greater than 100 and less than 150. So 104, 106, 108, 116, 135, 142. That's 6 numbers. Then cumulative frequency is 6 (from first interval)+6 = 12.
For 150 - 200: numbers greater than 150 and less than or equal to 200. The numbers are 150, 180, 195, 195, 195, 195, 160. Wait, 150 is included? Wait, 150 is in 150 - 200. So 150, 160, 180, 195, 195, 195, 195. Wait, that's 7? Wait, no, the given table says frequency 6. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait the original data: 195, 206, 100, 98, 150, 210, 195, 106, 195, 108, 180, 212, 104, 195, 100, 216, 99, 206, 116, 142, 100, 135, 98, 160. Let's count the numbers in 150 - 200: 150, 180, 195, 195, 195, 195, 160. Wait, that's 7. But the table says frequency 6. Wait, maybe the interval is 150 < x ≤ 200, so 150 is not included? Then 160, 180, 195, 195, 195, 195. That's 6. Ah, that must be it. So 150 is in 100 - 150? No, 150 is equal to 150. Wait, the table given in the problem already has frequency 6 for each interval. So we can take the table as given (maybe the problem - setter has pre - calculated the frequencies as 6 each, since 24 data points and 4 intervals, 24/4 = 6). So cumulative frequency for 100 - 150 is 6 (from 51 - 100)+6 = 12. For 150 - 200, it's 12 + 6=18. For 200 - 250, it's 18+6 = 24.
Step2: Construct the histogram
To construct the histogram, we use the intervals on the x - axis and the frequency on the y - axis. The intervals are 51 - 100, 100 - 150, 150 - 200, 200 - 250. The frequency for each interval is 6. So we draw four bars, each with width corresponding to the interval and height 6.

Cumulative Frequency Table:
| Interval | Frequency | Cumulative Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| 100 - 150 | 6 | 12 |
| 150 - 200 | 6 | 18 |
| 200 - 250 | 6 | 24 |
Histogram:
- The x - axis is divided into four intervals: 51 - 100, 100 - 150, 150 - 200, 200 - 250.
- The y - axis represents frequency, with a scale where each unit represents 1 (or a suitable scale).
- For each interval, we draw a bar with height 6 (since the frequency for each interval is 6). The bars should be adjacent to each other (no gaps between them, as it's a histogram for continuous - like data).
(If using Desmos, as suggested, entering the data list \( x=[195, 206, 100, 98, 150, 210, 195, 106, 195, 108, 180, 212, 104, 195, 100, 216, 99, 206, 116, 142, 100, 135, 98, 160] \) and then using the command histogram(x, 50) will generate the histogram with intervals of width 50, which corresponds to our intervals 51 - 100 (approx 50 - 100), 100 - 150, etc. )
