A recent poll of 3,057 individuals asked: “What’s the longest vacation you plan to take this summer?” The following relative frequency distribution summarizes the results.
Response | Relative Frequency | ||
A few days | 0.21 | ||
A few long weekends | 0.18 | ||
One week | 0.36 | ||
Two weeks | 0.25 | ||
a. Construct the frequency distribution of these data. (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)
b. Construct a bar chart for this data. (Before plotting the points, round the "Frequency" to the nearest whole number. Click on the x-axis exactly below the "0" point and then drag the bar till it reaches the correct answer.)
