a) Based on the above data and using a uniform class interval of size 3 kg, complete the following table. Class interval Frequency Midpoint 9-11 12-14
b) Based on the table, calculate the mean mass of the parcels. c) Using a scale of 2 cm to 3 kg on the x- axis and 2 cm to 1 parcel on the y-axis, draw a histogram for the data. Hence, on the same axes, draw a frequency polygon. d) Parcels that weigh 21 kg and above are considered overweight and have to be charged an extra fee. Calculate the percentage of the parcels that have to be charged an extra fee. e) State an information which you can interpret from histogram in (c).
