histograms, and pie charts, the manager can enhance his/her personal image as a communicator and decision-maker. In addition, emphasize that the final product (the frequency polygon, etc.) is just the beginning. Students should be encouraged to study the graphical output to recognize business trends, highs, lows, etc. and realize that the ultimate goal for these tools is their usage in decision making.

c) The ten class frequency distribution gives a more detailed breakdown of temperatures, pointing out the smaller frequencies for the higher temperature intervals. The five class distribution collapses the intervals into broader classes making it appear that there are nearly equal frequencies in each class. 2.2 One possible frequency distribution is the one below with 11 classes and class intervals of 2.

The distribution reveals that only 13 of the 100 boxes of raisins contain 50 1 raisin (49 -under 51). However, 71 of the 100 boxes of raisins contain between 45 and 55 raisins. It shows that there are a few boxes (5) that have 9 or more extra raisins (59-61) and two boxes that have 9-11 less raisins (3941) than the boxes are supposed to contain. 2.3 Class Interval Frequency 0-5 6 6 5 - 10 8 14 10 - 15 17 31 15 - 20 23 54 20 - 25 18 72 25 - 30 10 82 30 - 35 4 86 TOTAL 86 Class Midpoint 2.5 7.5 12.5 17.5 22.5 27.5 32.5 Relative Cumulative Frequency Frequency 6/86 = .0698 .0930 .1977 .2674 .2093 .1163 .0465 1.0000
The relative frequency tells us that it is most probable that a customer is in the
15 - 20 category (.2674). Over two thirds (.6744) of the customers are between 10 and 25 years of age. 2.4 Class Interval Frequency Frequency 0-2 218 2-4 207 4-6 56 6-8 11 8-10 8 TOTAL 500 Class Relative Cumulative Midpoint Frequency 1 3 5 7 9 .436 .414 .112 .022 .016 1.0000 218 425 481 492 500

2.37 The distribution of household income is bell-shaped with an average of about $ 90,000 and a range of from $ 30,000 to $ 140,000. 2.38 Family practice is most prevalent with about 20% with pediatrics next at slightly less. A virtual tie exists between ob/gyn, general surgery, anesthesiology, and psychiatry at about 14% each. 2.39 The fewest number of audits is 12 and the most is 42. More companies (8) performed 27 audits than any other number. Thirty-five companies performed between 12 and 19 audits. Only 7 companies performed 40 or more audits. 2.40 There were relatively constant sales from January through August ($4 to 6 million). Each month from September through December sales increased with December having the sharpest increase ($15 million in sales in December).
