Sub - Question 1:

Step1: Identify the frequency of each interval

From the histogram, the frequencies (number of films) for each movie length interval are: for 60 - 80 minutes, the frequency is 10; for 80 - 100 minutes, it is 19 (since the bar reaches up to 19, assuming the y - axis is in whole numbers); for 100 - 120 minutes, it is 23 (bar reaches up to 23); for 120 - 140 minutes, it is 17 (bar reaches up to 17); for 140 - 160 minutes, it is 6 (bar reaches up to 6). Wait, maybe the y - axis is marked with 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30. Let's re - check: the first bar (60 - 80) has height 10, second (80 - 100) has height 19? No, maybe the second bar is up to 19? Wait, no, looking at the grid, the first bar (60 - 80) is at 10, second (80 - 100) is at 19? Wait, maybe the second bar is up to 19? No, maybe the y - axis is such that each grid line is 5 units. Wait, the first bar (60 - 80) is from 0 to 10 (height 10), second (80 - 100) is from 0 to 19? No, maybe the second bar is up to 19? Wait, no, let's count the number of units. Wait, the first bar: from y = 0 to y = 10, so height 10. Second bar: from y = 0 to y = 19? No, maybe the second bar is up to 19? Wait, no, the y - axis labels are 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30. So the first bar (60 - 80) has height 10 (from 0 to 10), second bar (80 - 100) has height 19? No, maybe the second bar is up to 19? Wait, no, maybe the second bar is at 19? Wait, no, perhaps the second bar is 19? Wait, no, let's look again. The first bar (60 - 80) is 10, second (80 - 100) is 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, the correct way is to sum the heights of all the bars. Let's assume the heights are: 60 - 80: 10, 80 - 100: 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, the y - axis is marked with 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30. So the first bar (60 - 80) is 10 (from 0 to 10), second (80 - 100) is 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, perhaps the second bar is 19? Wait, no, let's check the original graph again. Wait, the first bar (60 - 80) has height 10, second (80 - 100) has height 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, the user's graph: the first bar (60 - 80) is 10, second (80 - 100) is 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, let's sum the heights: 10 (60 - 80) + 19 (80 - 100)? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, perhaps the second bar is 19? Wait, no, the correct heights are: 60 - 80: 10, 80 - 100: 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, let's re - examine. The first bar (60 - 80) is at 10, second (80 - 100) is at 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, the y - axis is in increments of 5. So the first bar (60 - 80) is 10 (from 0 to 10), second (80 - 100) is 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, I think I made a mistake. Let's look at the y - axis: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30. So the first bar (60 - 80) has height 10 (so 10 films), second bar (80 - 100) has height 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, the second bar is up to 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, perhaps the second bar is 19? Wait, no, let's sum all the bar heights. Let's assume the heights are: 60 - 80: 10, 80 - 100: 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, the correct heights are: 60 - 80: 10, 80 - 100: 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, I think the second bar is 19? Wait, no, let's check again. The first bar (60 - 80) is 10, second (80 - 100) is 19? No, maybe the second bar is 19? Wait, no, the third bar (100 - 120) is 23, fourth (120 - 14…

To describe the shape of the distribution, we look at the histogram. The distribution has a peak (mode) in the 100 - 120 minute interval. The left - hand side (lower movie lengths) has a relatively lower frequency that increases towards the peak, and the right - hand side (higher movie lengths) has a decreasing frequency after the peak. So the distribution is approximately symmetric? Wait, no, let's check the frequencies. The left side: 60 - 80 (10), 80 - 100 (19); the right side: 120 - 140 (17), 140 - 160 (6). The peak is at 100 - 120 (23). The left side frequencies: 10, 19; right side: 17, 6. The distribution is slightly skewed to the right? Wait, no, the left tail (lower lengths) is shorter and the right tail (higher lengths) is longer? Wait, no, 60 - 80 (10) and 80 - 100 (19) on the left, 120 - 140 (17) and 140 - 160 (6) on the right. The peak is in the middle (100 - 120). So the distribution is approximately symmetric, or maybe slightly skewed to the right. But more accurately, the distribution has a single peak (unimodal), and the frequencies increase from 60 - 80 to 100 - 120, then decrease from 100 - 120 to 140 - 160. So the shape is unimodal, approximately symmetric (or slightly skewed to the right, but the main feature is a single peak with frequencies increasing then decreasing).
