Question
Draw a histogram for the following frequency table:
Class interval $5 - 9$ $10 - 14$ $15 - 19$ $20 - 24$ $25 - 29$ $30 - 34$
Frequency $5$ $9$ $12$ $10$ $16$ $12$

Answer

We see that the class intervals are in inclusive manner.
We first need to convert them into exclusive manner.
Class interval Frequency
$4.5 - 9.5$ $5$
$9.5 - 14.5$ $9$
$14.5 - 19.5$ $12$
$19.5 - 24.5$ $10$
$24.5 - 29.5$ $16$
$29.5 - 34.5$ $12$
We take the true class limit on the $x-$axis on a suitable scale and the frequencies on the $y-$axis on suitable scales.
Taking class intervals as bases and the corresponding frequencies as heights, we consrtuct rectangles to obtain a histogram of the given frequency distribution.
​​​​​​​Here as the class limits do not start from $0$, we put a kink between $0$ and the true lower boundary of the first class.
