Estimating Averages and Quartiles

This video tutorial covers how to calculate averages from histograms, including estimating the median, lower quartile, and mean. It provides detailed instructions and examples for each calculation, emphasizing the use of frequency density and class width. The tutorial is designed to help students understand and apply these concepts effectively.

What is the main focus of this video tutorial?

• Drawing bar charts

• Estimating averages from histograms

• Solving algebraic equations

• Calculating probabilities

Which of the following is NOT covered in this video?

What is the first step in drawing a histogram?

• Drawing the bars

• Plotting frequency density

• Calculating the mean

• Labeling the axes

How do you calculate frequency density?

• Class width divided by frequency

• Frequency divided by class width

• Frequency multiplied by class width

• Frequency plus class width

What is the class width for the interval 90 to 100?

• 5

• 10

• 15

• 20

What is the frequency density for a frequency of 16 and class width of 5?

• 3.6

• 4.0

• 3.2

• 2.5

How do you find the median from a histogram?

• By identifying the tallest bar

• By finding the middle value in the frequency table

• By calculating the mean of all frequencies

• By summing all frequencies

What is the total frequency in the example used to find the median?

• 60

• 80

• 90

Where does the 40.5th value lie in the frequency table?

• Third row

• Fourth row

• First row

• Second row

What is the estimated median speed in the example?

• 105 km/h

• 108.2 km/h

• 110 km/h

• 112 km/h
