Question

the dual bar chart below shows how a group of 190 students travel to school. given that 50 students, said they travel to school by car complete the table below

Answer 1

The image of the bar chart is missing and so i have attached it.

Answer:

Bus = 75

Cycle = 20

Walk = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that 50 students said they travel to school by car.

However, in the bar chart, we see that we have a portion for boys and girls

Under car, when we count along the y-axis, we will see that, there are 6 units for boys and 4 units for girls.

Thus, to find the value of a unit since number of people that took cars is 50, we have;

(6x + 4x)/2 = 50

Where x is the value of one unit. Thus;

10x/2 = 50

5x = 50

x = 50/5

x = 10

Thus, a unit is 10

Under bus;

Boys have 7 units while girls have 8 units.

Thus;

Frequency by bus = ((7 × 10) + (8 × 10))/2 = 150/2 = 75

Under cycle;

Boys have 1 unit while girls have 3 units.

Thus;

Frequency by cycle = ((1 × 10) + (3 × 10))/2 = 20

Under walk;

Boys have 5 units while girls have 4 units.

Thus;

Frequency by cycle = ((5 × 10) + (4 × 10))/2 = 45
