Question
Construct a histogram and then a frequency polygon for the following frequency distribution.
Class Interval 11-20 21-30 31-40 41-50 51-60 61-70
Frequency 15 28 50 35 20 12

Answer

1. Organize the data into equal intervals by subtracting 0.5 from lower limit of each class and add 0.5 to the upper limit of each class .
2. On the $x$-axis, take $1 \mathrm{~cm}$ as 5 units and plot class interval .
3. On the $y$-axis, take $1 \mathrm{~cm}$ as 5 units and plot frequency.
4. Draw rectangles of histogram as per given data.
5. For each rectangle, mark the midpoint of its length at the top part . In this case, points are $(15.5,15),(25.5,28),(35.5,50),(45.5,35),(55.5,20),(65.5,12)$.
6. Mark two more midpoints of zero frequency on $x$-axis at the start and at the end .
7. Now connect the points using straight lines.
Class Interval Frequency
10.5-20.5 15
20.5-30.5 28
30.5-40.5 50
40.5-50.5 35
50.5-60.5 20
60.5-70.5 12
