Classes Frequency
0-50 25
0-30 18
0-10 5
  1. cumulative distribution in less than type

  2. Cumulative distribution in more than type

  4. cumulative frequency distribution


Correct Option: A

A core distribution data is given for an inventory measuring physical fitness. The type of graph that will be used to display the information will be _______________.

  1. Histogram

  2. Line graph

  3. Pie chart

  4. Bar graph


Correct Option: A

The most common form of diagrammatic representation of a grouped frequency distribution is -

  1. Ogive

  2. Histogram

  3. Frequency polygon

  4. None of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Answer:- B) Histogram

Reason:-
Histogram is easy to use and we can plot the curve, also we can find the areas of adjoining rectangles which is proportional to class frequencies.

When rectangles are drawn with the areas proportional to the frequencies of respective class intervals, what is the diagram called? 

  1. Bar graph

  2. Frequency polygon

  3. Pie graph

  4. Histogram


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The histograms are diagrams which represent the class interval and the frequency in the form of a rectangle. 

There will be as many adjoining rectangles as there are class intervals. 
So, when rectangles are drawn with the areas proportional to the frequencies of respective class intervals, the diagram called Histogram.
Therefore, option D is correct.

In histogram, the height of rectangle shows _____

  1. width of the class

  2. upper limit of the class

  3. lower limit of the class

  4. frequency of the class


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

histogram is a display of statistical information that uses rectangles to show the frequency of data items in successive numerical intervals of equal size.

Hence, height of the rectangle represents the frequency of the class.
