Section 12.2 Frequency Tables, Line Plots and Histograms Algebra Concepts Section 12.2 Frequency Tables, Line Plots and Histograms
Frequency table-lists each data item with the number of times it occurs
Line plot-displays x marks above each value on a number line.
Histogram-show the frequencies of data as a graph
Histograms Label axes Determine intervals (these can be different) Mark Intervals (must be evenly spaced)
Determine the intervals Find the range. Choose the number of bars you want Divide the range by this number
How many miles from school to your house? Collect data Decide on intervals Make a frequency table Make the graph
