HEART RATE MEASUREMENTS The table below summarizes the resting heart rate (in beats per minute) of a group of individuals. Identify the class width, class midpoints, and class boundaries for the given frequency distribution. Also, determine the total number of individuals included in the summary.
A university health center recorded the resting heart rates (beats per minute, BPM) of 50 students during a wellness checkup. Construct a frequency distribution using a class width of 5 BPM, starting with a lower class limit of 55 BPM. Does the frequency distribution suggest a normal distribution?
In a statistics class, students are asked to graph the distribution of test scores. Which graph should they use to determine how many students scored below a certain value, and what is the main feature of this graph?
A survey records the number of books read by 2828 students during the summer: 2,7,5,9,12,6,4,10,8,3,15,11,13,14,5,7,8,6,12,9,10,4,3,2,1,13,14,152, 7, 5, 9, 12, 6, 4, 10, 8, 3, 15, 11, 13, 14, 5, 7, 8, 6, 12, 9, 10, 4, 3, 2, 1, 13, 14, 15. Construct a frequency distribution using 55 classes. Include class midpoints, relative frequencies, and cumulative frequencies.
What is the most common cafeteria line wait time based on the relative frequency histogram?
