57. FrequencyDistribution Example: Dr. Tillman is Dean of the School of Business Socastee University. He wishes to prepare a report showing the number of hours per week students spend studying. He selects a random sample of 30 students and determines the number of hours each student studied last week. 15.0, 23.7, 19.7, 15.4, 18.3, 23.0, 14.2, 20.8, 13.5, 20.7, 17.4, 18.6, 12.9, 20.3, 13.7, 21.4, 18.3, 29.8, 17.1, 18.9, 10.3, 26.1, 15.7, 14.0, 17.8, 33.8, 23.2, 12.9, 27.1, 16.6. Step 1: Just enough recipe 2 to the k rule Select the smallest number (k) for the number of classes such that 2k is greater than the number of observations (n).
65. The classes must be mutually exclusive and exhaustive.Class interval (next unit of Highest value – lowest value) / number of classes. Usually we will chose some convenient number as class interval that satisfy the inequality.
74. With k=5 and interval = 5, the classes will cover a range of 25.
75. Let’s split the surplus in the lower and upper tail equally. (25-23.5)/2 = 0.75. Hence, the lower limit of the first class should be around (10.3 – 0.75)=9.55 and upper limit of the last class should be (33.8 + 0.75)=34.55.
76. 9.55 and 34.55 look odd. Some convenient and close numbers would be 10 and 35.“10 up to 15” means the interval from 10 to 15 that includes 10 but not 15.
77. FrequencyDistribution Step 4: Tally the data 15.0, 23.7, 19.7, 15.4, 18.3, 23.0, 14.2, 20.8, 13.5, 20.7, 17.4, 18.6, 12.9, 20.3, 13.7, 21.4, 18.3, 29.8, 17.1, 18.9, 10.3, 26.1, 15.7, 14.0, 17.8, 33.8, 23.2, 12.9, 27.1, 16.6. Example: Hours studying 7 10 up to 15 12 15 up to 20 20 up to 25 7 25 up to 30 3 30 up to 35 1

80. Exercises 2-b A set of data consists of 38 observations. Howmany classes wouldyourecommendfor the frequency distribution? 25 = 32, 26 = 64, therefore, 6 classes A set of data consists of 230 observationsbetween $235 and $567. Whatclass interval wouldyourecommend. 27 = 128, 28 = 256, suggests 8 classes Classintervals of 40, 45, or 50 all wouldbeacceptable. P33. N.7 .Ch.2
