Consider the following statements in respect of histogram: 1. Histogram is an equivalent graphical representation of the frequency distribution. 2. Histogram is suitable for continuous random variables, where the total frequency of an interval is evenly distributed over the interval. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
- A. 1 only
- B. 2 only
- C. Both 1 and 2
- D. Neither 1 nor 2
Step-by-step solution
Statement 1 is correct because a histogram is a graphical representation of a frequency distribution using bars, where the area of each bar corresponds to the frequency. Statement 2 is correct because histograms are designed for continuous data and assume that frequencies are uniformly distributed across each interval. Thus, both statements are correct.
