Convinced about the importance of data processing through of statistics, Matheus, a production engineer, needs to do an analysis of the following data, which refers to daily production, in tons, from a company that operates in the processing industry of sugar cane. b) In addition to organizing the data in the frequency distribution, it is important to interpret the data. So Matheus performs the interpretation of the following data. - The interpretation of the absolute frequency of the third class. - The interpretation of the relative frequency of the second class. - The interpretation of the accumulated absolute frequency of the fourth class. What is the correct interpretation performed by Matheus for the previous questions?
One of the primary goals of constructing a frequency distribution for quantitative data is to summarize the data O by showing frequency of values that lie within a class or bin. O so that there are always 7 classes or bins of data. O ensuring that the classes or bins are always of different widths. O in a manner so that each class or bin has the same number of data points.

Average monthly wages (per employee) in 4 sectors of an economy are as follows: industry: 2000 dinars, building: 2200 dinars, agriculture: 1500 dinars, services: 1800 dinars. Number of people employed in the four sectors are 5 million, 2 million, 6 million, and 2 million, respectively. Using the concept of harmonic mean compute the average monthly wages in the economy under consideration.
