ANSWER:Step 1 of 7
(a)
The following frequency histogram represents the IQ scores of a random sample of seventh-grade students.
We are asked to find the number of students sampled.
The total number of students will be the sum of the frequency of each bar in the graph.
The total number of students were sampled
= 2 + 3 + 13 + 42 + 58 + 40 + 31 + 8 + 2 + 1 = 200
Hence 200 students were sampled.
