Graph:

  Statistics Through Applications, Chapter 2.1, Problem 2.17E , additional homework tip  2

    IntervalsFrequency
    0-500000019
    5000000-100000001
    10000000-150000005
    15000000-200000003
    20000000-250000002
    25000000-300000001

The distribution is skewed to right and it is clearing showing that mode will be between 0 and 5000000 which is looking forth.

(b)

To determine

To Explain: the shape of the histogram

(b)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

By seeing the graph highest bar is in the left side of the histogram and lowest bar in the right side so the distribution would be skewed to right or positive skewed and mode would be between 0 and 5000000 because there is highest frequency which is 19 and all other bars are very lowest below frequency 4.

(c)

To determine

To Explain: the spread of the histogram.

(c)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

There is minimum value is $390000 and maximum value is $28000000 so the spread of the distribution would be between $390000 and $28000000. Range is 27610000 and most of the data is between $0 and $5000000 by seeing the histogram which is looking forth.
