Read each question carefully and answer to the best of your ability. For questions requiring a frequency polygon, use the provided grid or draw one on separate paper.

1. A frequency polygon is a graphical representation of a   distribution.

2. To construct a frequency polygon, we plot the   of each class interval against its frequency.

3. The x-axis of a frequency polygon represents the  , and the y-axis represents the  .

1. Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of a frequency polygon?

a

It uses line segments.

b

It is closed at both ends, touching the x-axis.

c

It is suitable for continuous data.

d

It uses bars to represent frequency.

2. The mid-point of a class interval is also known as the:

a

Class limit

b

Class boundary

c

Class mark

d

Class width

1. The following table shows the marks obtained by 50 students in a math test:

Class Interval | Frequency ----------------|---------- 10-20 | 5 20-30 | 8 30-40 | 12 40-50 | 10 50-60 | 7 60-70 | 5 70-80 | 3

a) Calculate the class mark for each class interval.

b) Construct a frequency polygon for the given data on the graph below. Remember to extend it to the x-axis.
