Question
The table below shows the frequency distribution of the weights (in grams) of pre-1964 quarters.

| Weight (g)   | Frequency |
|--------------|-----------|
| 6.000-6.049  | 3         |
| 6.050-6.099  | 3         |
| 6.100-6.149  | 7         |
| 6.150-6.199  | 10        |
| 6.200-6.249  | 11        |
| 6.250-6.299  | 4         |
| 6.300-6.349  | 5         |
| 6.350-6.399  | 1         |

Use the frequency distribution to construct a histogram. Does the histogram appear to depict data that have a normal distribution? Why or why not?

### Choose the correct histogram below:

- **Option A**: Shows a bell-shaped distribution with frequencies that generally increase to a peak and then decrease, appearing roughly symmetric.

- **Option B**: Indicates frequencies initially decreasing then increasing, and the histogram appears roughly symmetric without a bell shape.

- **Option C**: Demonstrates frequencies that decrease to a minimum and then increase, forming a roughly symmetric distribution.

### Does the histogram appear to depict data that have a normal distribution?

- **Option A**: The histogram appears to depict a normal distribution. The frequencies generally increase to a maximum and then decrease, and the histogram is roughly symmetric.
  
- **Option B**: The histogram does not appear to depict a normal distribution. The frequencies decrease to a minimum and then increase, and the histogram is roughly symmetric.
  
- **Option C**: The histogram appears to depict a normal distribution. The frequencies generally decrease to a minimum and then increase.
  
- **Option D**: The histogram does not appear to depict a normal distribution. The frequencies generally increase and the histogram is roughly symmetric.
