II. TRUE OR FALSE. Determine whether the statement is true or false.

TRUE 1. In a frequency distribution, the class width is the distance between the
lower and upper limits of a class.
TRUE 2. The midpoint of a class is the sum of its lower and upper limits divided by
two.
FALSE 3. An ogive is a graph that displays relative frequencies.
TRUE 4. Class boundaries are used to ensure that consecutive bars of a
histogram touch.
TRUE 5. The relative frequency of a class is the portion or percentage of the data
that falls in that class.

III. Find the class width, the lower class limits, and the upper class limits of the
following given the minimum and maximum data entries and the number of
classes.
Min = 9, max = 64, with 7 classes
