    109 Histograms

    Uploaded by

    Joel Gray
    This document provides instructions and examples for drawing and interpreting histograms using frequency data from tables. It includes 7 practice problems of increasing complexity that involve: 1) Drawing histograms from frequency tables of data about car speeds, tree heights, and apple weights. 2) Calculating estimates from histograms, such as the number of cars traveling over 85 km/h. 3) Finding proportions of data values from a histogram, like the percentage of apples weighing 140-200 grams. 4) Completing partial histograms and frequency tables using data about people's ages. The goals are to help students learn to accurately draw histograms and extract information from histograms based on frequency data provided in tables.
