Question
how many students work 40 or more hours in a month?

Transcribed Image Text:**Survey of University Students' Monthly Working Hours**
**University students were surveyed and asked how many hours (\(h\)) they worked each month. The results are presented below.**
| Hours per month, \(h\) | Frequency | Cumulative frequency |
| --- | --- | --- |
| \(0 < h \le 10\) | 3 | 3 |
| \(10 < h \le 20\) | 7 | 10 |
| \(20 < h \le 30\) | 10 | 20 |
| \(30 < h \le 40\) | 14 | 34 |
| \(40 < h \le 50\) | \(p\) | 44 |
| \(50 < h \le 60\) | 6 | 50 |
| \(60 < h \le 70\) | 4 | 54 |
| \(70 < h \le 80\) | 2 | \(q\) |
### Problem:
**a. Solve for \(p\) and \(q\).**
- From the table, we know:
- \(p + 34 = 44\)
- Therefore, \(p = 44 - 34 = 10\).
- The cumulative frequency for \(q\) is:
- \(q = 54 + 2 = 56\).
Thus, \(p = 10\) and \(q = 56\).
### CF Curve Diagram:
**The first 5 class intervals in the table have been used to draw a cumulative frequency (CF) curve.**
### Explanation of the Graph:
1. **Axes:**
- **x-axis:** Represents the hours per month (\(h\)).
- **y-axis:** Represents the cumulative frequency.
2. **Plotting Points:**
- The cumulative frequency for each class interval is plotted as follows:
- \(0 < h \le 10\), frequency = 3, cumulative frequency = 3.
- \(10 < h \le 20\), frequency = 7, cumulative frequency = 10.
- \(20 < h \le 30\), frequency = 10, cumulative frequency = 20.
- \(30 < h \le 40\), frequency = 14, cumulative frequency = 34.
- \(40 < h \le 50
