Construct histograms and frequency
polygons given a set of quantitative
data.
A chef wants to build his own restaurant in a
certain area. He decide to base his menu on
the preferred cuisine of the immediate
residents of the area so he did a survey on
that.
Of the 200 residents interviewed, 93 stated a
preference to home-cooked Filipino food.
Thirty-nine likes Chinese food while 45 goes
for the classic American fast food. On the
other hand 16 would go for Japanese, while
the rest were undecided.

A survey was taken on 5
th
Ave. In each of 20
homes, people were asked how many cars
were registered to their households. The
results were recorded as follows:
1, 2, 1, 0, 3, 4, 0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1, 4, 0, 0

The following are the height of 30 students in a school:
98 120 135 107 143 125 120 94
138 99 149 107 160 138 141 161

153 140 140 115 142 116

Represent the data through a frequency distribution
table.
One. Solve for the RANGE and CLASS SIZE
Two. Construct CLASS INTERVALS starting with the lowest
score.
Three. Determine the frequency in each interval.
