Question 1 of 6
1. Question
A bus depot conducted a survey on how many passengers were on each bus through an `8` hour period. How many buses had less than `20` passengers?`\text(Class)` `\text(Class Centre) (c.c.)` `\text(Frequency) (f)` `f⋅c.c.` `0-4` `2` `5` `10` `5-9` `7` `9` `63` `10-14` `12` `13` `156` `15-19` `17` `10` `170` `20-24` `22` `7` `154` `25-29` `27` `2` `54` - (37) `\text(buses)`

A grouped frequency distribution table is used for larger data sets and uses classes with intervals to group the scores.First, identify which classes has less than `20` passengers.Class Class Centre `(c.c.)` Frequency `(f)` `f⋅c.c.` 0-4 2 5 10 5-9 7 9 63 10-14 12 13 156 15-19 17 10 170 20-24 22 7 154 25-29 27 2 54 Finally, add up the frequencies of the highlighted classes to get the total number of buses.Class Class Centre `(c.c.)` Frequency `(f)` `f⋅c.c.` 0-4 2 5 10 5-9 7 9 63 10-14 12 13 156 15-19 17 10 170 20-24 22 7 154 25-29 27 2 54 `\text(Total Buses)` `=` `5+9+13+10` `=` `37` `37 \text(buses had less than) 20 \text(passengers)` -
Question 2 of 6
2. Question

Nice Job!
Incorrect
A modal class is the group of scores with the highest frequency.Notice that the highest value in the Frequency column is `13` and it corresponds to `10-14`.Class Class Centre `(c.c.)` Frequency `(f)` `f⋅c.c.` 0-4 2 5 10 5-9 7 9 63 10-14 12 13 156 15-19 17 10 170 20-24 22 7 154 25-29 27 2 54 In other words, the class `10-14` occurs the most frequently, and is therefore the modal class.`\text(Modal Class)=10-14` -

Question 5 of 6
5. Question
A bus depot conducted a survey on how many passengers were on each bus through an `8` hour period. Find the median class.`\text(Class)` `\text(Class Centre) (c.c.)` `\text(Frequency) (f)` `0-4` `2` `5` `5-9` `7` `9` `10-14` `12` `13` `15-19` `17` `10` `20-24` `22` `7` `25-29` `27` `2` `\text(Total) =46` - `\text(Median Class )=` (10)- (14)

Incorrect
The class where a data set’s median is located is called the median class.Add a Cumulative Frequency column to the table.To find the median, fill in the Cumulative Frequency column by adding the frequency, as seen below.Class Class Centre `(c.c.)` Frequency `(f)` Cumulative Frequency 0-4 2 5 5 5-9 7 9 5+9=14 10-14 12 13 14+13=27 15-19 17 10 27+10=37 20-24 22 7 37+7=44 25-29 27 2 44+2=46 `\text(Total) =46` To check, the last entry in the Cumulative Frequency column must be equal to the
Total Frequency.Since the total number of scores is `46`, the middle score should be the average of the `23`rd and `24`th scores.Find the row that includes the `23`rd and `24`th scores.Class Class Centre `(c.c.)` Frequency `(f)` Cumulative Frequency 0-4 2 5 5 5-9 7 9 5+9=14 10-14 12 13 14+13=27 15-19 17 10 27+10=37 20-24 22 7 37+7=44 25-29 27 2 44+2=46 `\text(Total) =46` The third row covers all scores between the `15`th and `27`th position — this includes the `23`rd and `24`th.Since we are looking for the median class, it will be the class where the two scores are located, which is `10-14`.`\text(Median Class)=10-14` -
