Class

Frequency
The amount of times an event occurs in a study
Boundaries

Midpoint

Cumulative Frequency
The running total of frequencies
The three types of frequency distributions
Categorical, Grouped, and Ungrouped
Grouped frequency graph types
Histogram, Frequency polygon, and Ogive
Two other graphs are…
Time series and Pareto Chart
Which graph has frequency on the y-axis, and boundaries on the x-axis
Histogram(Bar Graph)
Which graph has frequencies on the y-axis and midpoints on the x-axis
Frequency Polygon
Which graph has Cumulative frequency on the y-axis and boundaries on the x-axis
Ogive
What kind of graph shows nominal data
Pareto Graph
True or False: On Pareto graph, the first bar on the graph touches the y axis
True
