Q u e s t i o n : 4 7
A frequency polygon is constructed by plotting frequency of the class interval and the
(a) upper limit of the class
(b) lower limit of the class
(c) mid value of the class
(d) any values of the class
S o l u t i o n :
(c) mid value of the class
Frequency polygon is the plot of frequencies vs. the mid values of the classes.
Hence, the correct answer is option (c)
Q u e s t i o n : 4 8
In a histogram the area of each rectangle is proportional to
(a)  the class mark of the corresponding class interval
(b) the class size of the corresponding class interval
(c) frequency of the corresponding class interval
(d) cumulative frequency of the corresponding class interval
S o l u t i o n :
(c) frequency of the corresponding class interval
In a histogram the area of each rectangle is proportional to the frequency of the corresponding class interval.
Hence, the correct answer is option (c).
Q u e s t i o n : 4 9
In the 'less than' type of ogive the cumulative frequency is plotted against
(a) the lower limit of the concerned class interval
(b) the upper limit of the concerned class interval
(c) the mid-value of the concerned class interval
(d) any value of the concerned class interval
S o l u t i o n :
(b) the upper limit of the concerned class interval
In the less than type of ogive the cumulative frequency is plotted against the upper limit of the concerned class
interval.
Hence, the correct answer is option (b).

In a histogram the class intervals or the group are taken along
(a) Y-axis
(b) X-axis
(c) both of X-axis and Y-axis
(d) in between X and Y axis
