interval: the numbers between two specific
values
interval size: a count of the two specific values
in an interval and the numbers between them

How do you determine the size of an interval?
Subtract the 2 numbers in the interval and add 1.

Creating equal intervals
Create equal intervals of the data.
The final scores for each golfer in a tournament
77, 71, 70, 82, 75, 76, 72, 70, 77, 74, 71, 75, 68,
72, 75, 74
Step 1 Identify the least and greatest values in
a set of data.
68 and 82
Step 2 Decide on the the size of the intervals.
(Typically, you want 4 - 7 intervals in the table with
interval sizes of 2 or higher)
Step 3 Create intervals that have the same size.

10-2 Frequency and Histograms
The frequency of a data value is the number of
times it occurs.
A frequency table shows the frequency of each
data value.

Example 1: Making a Frequency Table
Use the golf score data to make a frequency table
with intervals. Make the first interval 68 - 71.
77, 71, 70, 82, 75, 76, 72, 70, 77, 74, 71, 75,

The number of days of Maria’s last 15
vacations are listed below. Use the data to
make a frequency table with intervals of 3.

10-2 Frequency and Histograms
A histogram is a special bar graph where
the bars touch.
The bars must be of equal width and should
touch, but not overlap.

Example 3: Making a Histogram
Make a histogram for the number of days of
Maria’s last 15 vacations. Use intervals of 3.
4, 8, 6, 7, 5, 4, 10, 6, 7, 14, 12, 8, 10, 15, 12
Step 1 Choose intervals for the horizontal axis.
The intervals must be the same size.
Step 2 Draw a bar for the number of scores in
each interval.
Step 3 Title the graph and label the horizontal
and vertical axes.

a. Use the data to make a cumulative
frequency table.
Step 1 Make a frequency table with intervals.
Step 2 Add a “cumulative frequency” column to the
table.

Step 1 Choose intervals for the first column of the
table.
Step 2 Record the frequency values in each interval
for the second column.

b. How many sentences contain 35 vowels or fewer?
All sentences with
less than 35 vowels.
are displayed in the
first two rows of the
table, so look at the
cumulative frequency
shown in the second
row.
There are 9 sentences
with fewer than 35
vowels.
