a) Tally the data into a frequency distribution using $100 as a class interval and $0 as the starting point. b) Draw a cumulative …show more content…
To begin the plotting, 4 companies has shareholders between 130 to 150, so the first plot is at X=140 [Mid Point of 130 and 150] and Y=4, the coordinate of the next plot are X=150 and Y=9. The rest of the points are plotted and then the dots connected to form the chart.

c) To draw cumulative frequency distribution, we scale the upper limit of each class along the X-axis and the corresponding cumulative frequency along the Y-axis. To provide additional information, we label the vertical axis on the left from 0 to 32 units and the vertical axis on the right from 0 to 100 percent. To begin the plotting, 4 companies has shareholders between 130 to 150, so the first plot is at X=140 [Mid Point of 130 and 150] and Y=4, the coordinate of the next plot are X=150 and Y=9. The rest of the points are plotted and then the dots connected to form the chart.
