Histograms

Question Paper
Question 1
The height, h cm, of each of 120 plants is measured.
The frequency table shows this information.

Height, h cm 0 < h ≤ 10 10 < h ≤ 20 20 < h ≤ 30 30 < h ≤ 50


Frequency 2 18 62 38
A histogram is drawn to show the information in the frequency table.
The height of the bar representing the interval 10 < h ≤ 20 is 7.2 cm.

Calculate the height of the bar representing the interval 30 < h ≤ 50.

............................................ cm
