Step-by-step explanation:
The complete frequency distribution table for the data has been attached to this response.
The frequency column contains values that are the number of times the given range of hours appear in the data. For example, numbers in the range 0 - 2 hours, appear <em>9</em> times in the data. Also, the numbers in the range 3 - 5 appear <em>6</em> times. The same logic applies to other ranges.
The relative frequency column contains the ratio of the number of times the given range of hours appear in the data, to the total number of outcomes. The total number of outcomes is the sum of all the frequencies on the frequency column. This gives 38 as shown.
So, for example, to get the relative for the numbers in the range 0-2, divide their frequency (9) by the total outcome or frequency (38). i.e
9 / 38 = 0.24
Also, to get the relative for the numbers in the range 3-5, divide their frequency (6) by the total outcome or frequency (38). i.e
6 / 38 = 0.16
Do the same for the other ranges.
Answer: 6
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the number of plates bought for $6
Let y represent the Total number of plates bought = x + 1
<em>Remember that Mrs. Lim bought another plate for $18</em>
Total cost ÷ Total plates = Average Cost
6x + 18 = 8(x + 1)
6x + 18 = 8x + 8
18 = 2x + 8
10 = 2x
5 = x
y = x + 1
= 5 + 1
= 6
