1. The table represents the height and numbers of saplings in a strip of farm land.

height(cm) numbers(frequency) cumulative frequency


50 < h ≤ 60 2
60 < h ≤ 70 9
70 < h ≤ 80 15
80 < h ≤ 90 12
90 < h ≤ 100 7

(a) copy and complete the table


(b) plot points and sketch a graph of cumulative frequency against height
(c) use the graph to find the median height of saplings
(d) what is the lower quartile value?
(e) what is the higher quartile value?
(f) what is the interquartile range?
(g) how many saplings had a height more than 75 cm?
(h) what height did more than 85% of the saplings attain?
(all answers to nearest whole number)
