MATH P4 [IGCSE] HELP!
« on: May 16, 2009, 07:19:43 pm »
This is a question from the spec. paper 2009...about the bar height of the histogram...what do you do after you find the frequency density?

Thanks!

He didnt ask For histrogram,
he asked for cumilative frequency
However, if u want to find the height then use this ratio
F.d=Frequency divided by ClassWidth
and usually height equals the to the F.D

Yeah for the cumulative frequency, but when I find the FD, that's right but it's not the final answer...?

ok ashisonline 4 dat ques u dont need 2 bother bout FD tell me wat ques ur stuck on so i can help.
n theigstudent well shear is type of a transformation like enlargement. It has a scale factor n stuff. itz rely hard 2 explain n i myself get confused wid it. but du u want any particular help wid shear tell me so i ll try 2 help. gud luck.Take care

              Frequency                   
class with(difference between two numbers                    = Frequency density


After that you draw a scal in the y axis for the frequency density and on the x axis you put the class widths e.g 30 to 40
You then draw the bars.
