Question

mat 102 test: general math
26 which of the following lists data values to show the number of times a value appears in a data set?

• frequency table
• relative frequency
• absolute frequency
• frequency distribution

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Frequency table: Organizes data with categories and their frequencies, but it's a table, not the value showing occurrences.
• Relative frequency: It's the proportion (frequency/total), not the count of occurrences.
• Absolute frequency: Defined as the number of times a value appears in a data set.
• Frequency distribution: Describes how often values occur in intervals, not the count for a single value.

Answer:

Absolute frequency
