Study Notes
Calculating Range and Understanding Frequency Distributions
- The formula to calculate range is: Range = Maximum Value - Minimum Value.
Understanding Class Width and Frequency
- In a frequency distribution, the class width represents the difference between the upper and lower boundaries of a class interval.
Cumulative Frequencies
- The Less Than Cumulative Frequency (LCF) in a class indicates the total frequency of all values less than the upper boundary of that class.
- The Greater Than Cumulative Frequency (GCF) in a class represents the total frequency of all values greater than or equal to the lower boundary of that class.
Calculating Relative Frequency
- To calculate relative frequency in a class, divide the frequency of that class by the total number of observations, then multiply by 100.
Data Set Characteristics
- The range of the given data set is calculated using the maximum and minimum values.
- The data set was divided into a certain number of classes (not specified).
- The class width for the data set is used to create the class intervals.
Class Intervals and Frequencies
- In one of the classes, the frequency equals 5 (not specified which class).
- A certain percentage of observations (not specified) fall within the class 35-44.
