Age (years)	Frequency	Cumulative Frequency
20≤x<30	160
30≤x<40	130
40≤x<50	100
50≤x<60	115
60≤x<70	125
70≤x<80	135

The manager of a vacation resort believes that the ages of adult visitors to the resort can be modeled by a normal distribution. The manager surveyed a random sample of 765 visitors and recorded their age. A summary of the responses is shown in the frequency table, where x represents the age of the visitor.

Make a histogram of the data above.

Write a few sentences to describe the distribution of ages of the adult visitors to the resort

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
