  2. Cars 100 90 80 70 60 50 frequency density 40 240 ? 30 0 30 20 10 60 100 80 110 120 50 90 70 0 10 20 30 40 Speed mph Constructing a histogram from a frequency table Example Question 1: The frequency table gives information on the speeds (mph) of a sample of drivers using a motorway. Construct a Histogram for this data. 8 32 50 240/30 = 8 78 320/10 = 32 96 500/10 = 50 82 780/10 = 78 16 960/10 = 96 1. The class intervals are unequal so a frequency density column is needed. 820/10 = 82 640/40 = 16 2. Scale the horizontal axis. 3. Calculate frequency densities and scale the vertical axis.

Construct a Histogram for this data. Recorded Speeds of Cars on a Motorway 4. Draw the bars and title.

Ramblers 5 4 3 frequency density 2 5 ? 0 1 1 6 10 8 9 3 0 1 2 4 5 7 Distance (Miles) Example Question 2: The table shows the distance walked in miles by some ramblers on the Lincolnshire Wolds at the weekend. Draw a histogram for the data. 5 2 5  1 = 5 4 2  1 = 2 3 12  3 = 4 1.25 3  1 = 3 1. The class intervals are unequal so a frequency density column is needed. 5  4 = 1.25 2. Scale the horizontal axis. 3. Calculate frequency densities and scale the vertical axis.

The results are shown in the table. Draw a histogram for this data. 0.4 1 4  10 = 0.4 0.6 20  20 = 1 0.32 9  15 = 0.6 0.5 8  25 = 0.32 1. The class intervals are unequal so a frequency density column is needed. 15  30 = 0.5 2. Scale the horizontal axis. 3. Calculate frequency densities and scale the vertical axis.
