Question

question: the test scores of ms. jacksons 60 students are summarized in the table below. construct and label a frequency histogram of the data with an appropriate scale. test score num. of students 50 - 59 6 60 - 69 24 70 - 79 24 80 - 89 4 90 - 99 2

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the data - set

We have test - score intervals and the number of students in each interval.

Step2: Determine the x - axis and y - axis

The x - axis will be the test - score intervals (50 - 59, 60 - 69, 70 - 79, 80 - 89, 90 - 99) and the y - axis will be the number of students.

Step3: Draw bars

For the interval 50 - 59, draw a bar with height 6. For 60 - 69, height 24. For 70 - 79, height 24. For 80 - 89, height 4. For 90 - 99, height 2.

Step4: Label the histogram

Label the x - axis as "Test Scores" and the y - axis as "Number of Students". Give the histogram a title like "Test Scores of Ms. Jackson's Students".

Answer:

A frequency histogram with x - axis labeled "Test Scores" having intervals 50 - 59, 60 - 69, 70 - 79, 80 - 89, 90 - 99; y - axis labeled "Number of Students" with bars of heights 6, 24, 24, 4, 2 respectively and a title such as "Test Scores of Ms. Jackson's Students".
