DRP test scores There are many ways to measure the reading ability of children. One frequently used test is the Degree of Reading Power (DRP). In a research study on third-grade students, the DRP was administered to $44$ students $32$ Their scores were: Make a histogram to display the data. Write a paragraph describing the distribution of DRP scores.

Concept

A histogram is a graphing tool that is often used. It's used to summarise data that's either discrete or continuous and measured on an interval scale. It's a popular way to display the important aspects of a data distribution in a user-friendly way.

Explanation

The DRP scores of $44$ third-grade pupils were histogrammed using classes of $6$ points in width, starting at $12$ scores. That is, the first-class ranges from $12$ to $18$ points, the second from $18$ to 24 points, and so on. $24$ The following is a histogram of DRP scores.

Even though it appears to be symmetric, the distribution's form is a little uneven. The data center is around $35$ points. There are no outliers since the distribution's spread is accurate.

range = Minimum value 鈭� Maximum value

= 54 鈭� 14 = 40

As a result, the data tend to follow a symmetrical (normal) distribution. As a result, a histogram is created for the given data, which roughly follows a symmetrical (normal) distribution.
