Question

question the graph below represents how long it takes students in a 9th grade math class to get to school every morning. commute time minutes 0-9, 10-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59. frequency (number of students). what was the longest amount of time a student in this class could have spent on their commute? answer minutes

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the intervals

The commute time intervals are 0 - 9, 10 - 19, 20 - 29, 30 - 39, 40 - 49, 50 - 59 minutes.

Step2: Determine the longest interval

The last (highest - valued) interval is 50 - 59 minutes. So the longest possible commute time for a student would be up to 59 minutes (the upper bound of the 50 - 59 interval).

Answer:

59 minutes (or in the range 50 - 59 minutes)
