The following is a list of P/E ratios (current stock price divided by company's earnings per share) for 17 companies. 57, 53, 50, 46, 42, 35, 31, 56, 52, 34, 34, 34, 30, 30, 55, 55, 51. Draw the histogram for these data using an initial class boundary of 29.5, an ending class boundary of 59.5, and 5 classes of equal width. Note that you can add or remove classes. Label each class with its endpoints.​

Answer :

The histogram for these data is given at the end of the answer.

What is an histogram?

An histogram is a graph that shows the number of times each element of x was observed.

For this problem, there are 5 classes with a range of 30, as 59.5 - 29.5 = 30, hence the class width is of:

30/5 = 6.

From the data-set, we have that:

  • There are 7 values between 29.5 and 35.5.
  • There are 0 values between 35.5 and 41.5.
  • There are 2 values between 41.5 and 47.5.
  • There are 4 values between 47.5 and 53.5.
  • There are 4 values between 53.5 and 59.5.

Considering this, the histogram is given at the end of the answer.
