Table 1-6:

Frequency Distribution for

The Number of Units in a Structure and the

Number rented (in thousands)

Solution:

We can use the

Vertical Bar Chart

workbook

to create a

vertical bar chart.

Observe that the

Units in Structure

variable is categorical

or qualitative (1, 2 to 4, 5 to 9, etc.). The vertical bar chart for this

information is shown in

Figure 1-15

. The number at the top of each

category represents the number of values (frequencies) for that specific

group (number of units in the structure).
