A frequency table is a table with the frequency of each actual value in the data set.
Approach:
From the given table the number of students with a score of 10 is 1, so the frequency of score 10 is 1, similarly the number of students with a score of 40 is 1, so the frequency of score 40 is 1 similarly frequencies for rest of scores can be computed.
The frequency table for the Chem 103 test is given by,
Score | Frequency |
10 | 1 |
40 | 1 |
50 | 3 |
60 | 7 |
70 | 6 |
80 | 5 |
100 | 2 |

b)
To construct:
The bar graph corresponding to the given table.
Answer to Problem 1E
Solution:
The bar graph is given below.

A bar graph is a graph with bars (column) representing each of the actual values in the data set. The height of each column represents the frequency of the value in the data set.
Approach:
From the given table the number of students with a score of 0 is 0, so the frequency of score 0 is 0, similarly the number of students with a score of 10 is 1, so the frequency of score 10 is 1 similarly frequencies for rest of scores can be computed.
The frequency table for the Chem 103 test is given by,
Score | Frequency |
0 | 0 |
10 | 1 |
20 | 0 |
30 | 0 |
40 | 1 |
50 | 3 |
60 | 7 |
70 | 6 |
80 | 5 |
90 | 0 |
100 | 2 |
Place the scores along horizontal axis and the frequencies along vertical axis to construct bar graph. The bar graph of the frequency table is given below.
