Question

Heights of statistics students were obtained by a teacher as part of an experiment conducted for the class. The last digit of those heights are listed below. Construct a frequency distribution with 10 classes. Based on the distribution, do the heights appear to be reported or actually measured? What can be said about the accuracy of the results? Complete the frequency distribution below. (Type integers or decimals.) Based on the distribution, do the heights appear to be reported or actually measured? The heights appear to be reported because there are disproportionately more 0s and 5s. The heights appear to be actually measured because there are disproportionately more 0s and 5s. The heights appear to be actually measured because the distribution is uniform. The heights appear to be reported because the distribution is uniform.

Explanation / Answer

As there is a relatively higher frequency of last digits 0s and 5s, the heights appear to be report than actually measured. Had they been actually measured, we would have observed an approximate uniform distribution.

Answer: The heights appear to be reported because there are disporoportionately more 0s and 5s.
