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
