Question 1: Marks: 5+2=7
a) Following are the heights (in centimeters) of 45 female high school students. Prepare a frequency distribution of the data where the class width is 5, the number of classes is 6 and the smallest observation is 148. Also obtain the relative frequency and relative cumulative frequency.
170, 151, 154, 160, 158, 154, 171, 156, 160, 157, 160, 157, 148, 165, 158, 159, 155, 151, 152, 161, 156, 164, 156, 163, 174, 153, 170, 149, 166, 154, 166, 160, 160, 161, 154, 163, 164, 160, 148, 162, 167, 165, 158, 158, 176.
b) Which level of measurement (scale of measurement) is suitable for the following data in each example?
i) The lake Saif-ul-Muluk is 10,578 feet above from the sea level.
ii) If customers go to the shop for buying shoes and try different size of shoes. The sizes of shoes are 7B, 10D and 12E.
iii) The numbering on T-shirts of players in the cricket team.
iv) The weight of the person is 68 kg.
