Suppose that, at the end of last semester, Marie gave her introductory statistics class a final exam. After grading these exams, she created a histogram illustrating the distribution of exam scores for the 70 students in the class. Each of the bars in this histogram includes only the left endpoint of the interval, except for the bar representing scores between 90 and 100 points, which also includes the right endpoint.
