AND ANSWERS FOR EASY EXAM PASS
distribution of frequencies The frequency of each value in a dataset is displayed
by ANSWER.
frequency tables: In a table format, ANSWER shows how frequently a
particular value occurs in the dataset.
What does each frequency table column mean? ANSWER The category is
shown in one column, while the frequency is shown in the other.
absolute frequency - raw count of answers
When responding to the question, "How many students out of the total number
of students scored a letter grade?" what kind of frequency do you use? The
relative frequency of answers
Relative frequency is the ratio of a category's absolute frequency to its overall
frequency.
formula for relative frequency - ANSWER frequency in category/total
frequency
When responding to the question, "How many students scored a B or better?"
what kind of frequency do you use? The cumulative frequency of answers
Cumulative frequency: ANSWER the total of all previous categories'
frequencies
What kinds of variables can be utilized with frequency tables? ANSWER
variables, either qualitative or quantitative
What are the divisions into which the quantitative scores are divided when using
frequency tables for quantitative variables? Answer bins
, ANSWER pie charts, bar charts, frequency polygons, histograms, and stem and
leaf plots are examples of frequency graphs.
Regarding qualitative variables, what kind of frequency graphs are utilized? Pie
charts and bar charts in response
For quantitative variables, what kinds of frequency graphs are utilized? Plots of
stems and leaves, frequency polygons, and answer histograms
Pie charts: ANSWER shows the relative frequencies of each category for
qualitative variables in a pie chart, rather than necessarily the absolute
frequencies.
Each part of a pie represents... - ANSWER a distinct category
Each portion's size is proportionate to... ANSWER the category's relative
frequency.
ANSWER 100% of the scores are represented by the full pie.
Pie charts are excellent to visualize... The frequencies of the answer
Pie charts only work well for a limited number of categories.
bar graphs or charts: ANSWER uses bars to show the absolute and relative
frequencies of qualitative data.
Every bar denotes an ANSWER category.
A bar's height indicates... ANSWER the frequency
Do the bars touch in a bar graph? ANSWER no
The ANSWER histogram uses bars to show the absolute and relative
frequencies of quantitative data.
Every bar stands for... Respond to a category
The bar's height indicates... ANSWER the frequency
In a histogram, do the bars touch? - ANSWER yes
