Answer:

[tex]\begin{array}{cc}{Class}& {Frequency} & 138 - 202 & 14 & 203 - 267 & 5 & 268 - 332 & 3 & 333 - 397 & 1 & 398 - 462 & 3 \ \end{array}[/tex]

The class with the greatest is 138- 202 and the class with the least relative frequency is 333 - 397

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): The frequency distribution

Given that:

[tex]Lowest = 138[/tex] --- i.e. the lowest class value

[tex]Class = 5[/tex] --- Number of classes

From the given dataset is:

[tex]Highest = 459[/tex]

So, the range is:

[tex]Range = Highest - Lowest[/tex]

[tex]Range = 459 - 138[/tex]

[tex]Range = 321[/tex]

Divide by the number of class (5) to get the class width

[tex]Width = 321 \div 5[/tex]

[tex]Width = 64.2[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]Width = 64[/tex]

So, we have a class width of 64 in each class;

The frequency table is as follows:

[tex]\begin{array}{cc}{Class}& {Frequency} & 138 - 202 & 14 & 203 - 267 & 5 & 268 - 332 & 3 & 333 - 397 & 1 & 398 - 462 & 3 \ \end{array}[/tex]

Solving (b) The relative frequency histogram

First, we calculate the relative frequency by dividing the frequency of each class by the total frequency

So, we have:

[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}{Class}& {Frequency} & {Relative\ Frequency} & 138 - 202 & 14 & 0.53 & 203 - 267 & 5 & 0.19 & 268 - 332 & 3 & 0.12 & 333 - 397 & 1 & 0.04 & 398 - 462 & 3 & 0.12 \ \end{array}[/tex]

See attachment for histogram

The class with the greatest is 138- 202 and the class with the least relative frequency is 333 - 397
