Problems from Histogram

Propose a list of $$12$$ elements that represent the results of a casino roulette, including integers from $$0$$ to $$36$$. Then, propose a few possible intervals to do a histogram, so that every bar has the same height and has $$4$$ rectangles. Finally, group the results by tens (including zero as the first one) and calculate the heights of the rectangles of the histogram of absolute frequencies.

Development:

  • Results: $$0$$, $$0$$, $$9$$, $$13$$, $$13$$, $$16$$, $$21$$, $$33$$, $$34$$, $$34$$, $$35$$, $$36$$.
  • The intervals are designed so that each one has 3 elements.

$$I1= [0,10]$$

$$I2 = [11, 17]$$

$$I3 = [18, 32]$$

$$I4= [33,36]$$

  • The following table shows the number of elements in every ten:
$$[0,10]$$ $$3$$
[11, 17] $$3$$
$$[18, 32]$$ $$1$$
$$[33,36]$$ $$5$$

The heights of every rectangle are calculated:

$$$\displaystyle \begin{array} {rcl} h_i&=&\frac{f_i}{a_i} \\\\ h_0&=&\frac{3}{11}=0.\overline{27} \\\\ h_1&=&\frac{3}{7}=0.43 \\\\ h_2&=&\frac{1}{14}=0.07 \\\\ h_3&=&\frac{5}{4}=1,25\end{array}$$$

Solution:

Results: $$0$$, $$0$$, $$9$$, $$13$$, $$13$$, $$16$$, $$21$$, $$33$$, $$34$$, $$34$$, $$35$$, $$36$$.

$$I1= [0,10]$$

$$I2 = [11, 17]$$

$$I3 = [18, 32]$$

$$I4= [33,36]$$

$$\displaystyle \begin{array} {rcl} h_i&=&\frac{f_i}{a_i} \\\\ h_0&=&\frac{3}{11}=0.\overline{27} \\\\ h_1&=&\frac{3}{7}=0.43 \\\\ h_2&=&\frac{1}{14}=0.07 \\\\ h_3&=&\frac{5}{4}=1,25\end{array}$$
