The ages of the signers of the Declaration of Independence are shown below. Note that the ages are approximations since only the birth ear appeared in the source and one has been omitted since his birth year is unknown. There are 55 ages: 41 54 47 40 39 44 52 39 50 40 44 63 60 27 42 35 43 48 46 31 35 46 45 34 53 60 38 39 37 50 32 33 52 69 34 42 70 46 42 50 45 33 42 63 55 62 36 45 49 55 35 30 34 27 50 Complete the following frequency table from the data then construct a frequency histogram for the data (note: round the relative frequency to two decimal places). Classes (age groups) Frequency Relative Frequency 20 - 29 30 - 39 40 - 49 50 - 59 60 - 69 70 - 79 What percentage of signers were under 50 years of age? Next, sketch a relative frequency histogram of the age of the signers. Comment on the shape of the histogram (i.e. is it normally distributed, right-skewed, left-skewed)?

- What percentage of signers were under 50 years of age?
- Next, sketch a relative frequency histogram of the age of the signers.
- Comment on the shape of the histogram (i.e. is it normally distributed, right-skewed, left-skewed)?
- Construct a stem-and-leaf plot for the age of the signers, using the first digit as the stem and the second digit as the leaf:
- Construct a dot plot of the age of the signers:

Thank you! this helped a lot. Could you show me what the last 2 questions are at the very bottom? The leaf-and-stem plot and the dot plot
