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.

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.

The answer is B,
Could you please show the steps to obtain the answer
2. Suppose that U(x, y, z) = x² + y²+ z² represents the temperature of a 3-dimensional solid object
at any point (x, y, z). Then
F(x, y, z) = -KVU (x, y, z)
represents the heat flow at (x, y, z) where K > 0 is called the conductivity constant and the
negative sign indicates that the heat moves from higher temperature region into lower temperature
region. Answer the following questions.
(A) [90%] Compute the inward heat flux (i.e., the inward flux of F) across the surface z =
1 - x² - y².
(B) [10%] Use the differential operator(s) to determine if the heat flow is rotational or irrotational.
Could you show why the answer is B
Using polar coordinates and the area formula
