Question
Construct a histogram and then a frequency polygon for the following frequency distribution.
Class Interval 0-10 10-20 20-30 30-40 40-50 50-60
Frequency 8 13 27 35 14 3

Answer

Steps:
1. On the $x$-axis , take $1 \mathrm{~cm}$ as 5 units and plot class interval.
2. On the $y$-axis, take $1 \mathrm{~cm}$ as 5 units and plot frequency.
3. Draw rectangle of histogram as per given data.
4. For each rectangle, mark the midpoint of its length at the top part . In this case, points are $(5,8)$, $(15,13),(25,27),(35,35),(45,14),(55,3)$.
5. Mark two more midpoints of zero frequency on $x$-axis at the start and at the end.
6. Now connect the points using straight lines.
Class Interval Frequency
0-10 8
10-20 13
20-30 27
30-40 35
40-50 14
50-60 3
