Frequency polygon:
1.If the midpoints of each rectangle in a histogram are joined by line
segments the figure formed will be a frequency polygon.
2.can be drawn without a histogram needed with points of class intervals.
Represent the data of both teams on the same graph by frequency polygons.
[Hint: First, make the class intervals continuous.]
A. The data given in the question is represented in the discontinuous class interval. So, we
have to make it in the continuous class interval. The difference is 1, so taking half of 1, we
subtract ½ = 0.5 = 0.5 from the lower limit and add 0.5 to the upper limit. Then, the table
becomes
0.5-6.5 3.5 2 5
6.5-12.5 9.5 1 6
12.5-18.5 15.5 8 2
18.5-24.5 21.5 9 10
24.5-30.5 27.5 4 5

frequency corresponding to the class mark a- 2 to a+ 2 is spread over the
interval
Statement-2 (Reason): The class marks of a continuous frequency distribution
are: 1.04, 1.14, 1.24, 1.34, 1.44, 1.54, 1.64, then the last interval is 1.55 - 1.73.
