Worksheet Classwork - Histograms and Frequency Tables

Here are the key steps to construct a polygon from a frequency table with two lines: 1. Determine the class intervals or width of classes. The class width should allow for an appropriate number of classes to show the distribution of the data. Too few or too many classes makes the pattern harder to see. 2. Calculate the frequency (count of observations) in each class. 3. Calculate the relative frequency by dividing the frequency by the total number of observations. 4. Calculate the cumulative relative frequency by adding the relative frequencies from the previous classes. 5. Plot the relative frequencies on the y-axis with the class midpoints on the x-axis. Connect the points to form the first line of the
