Check my answer!!

OpenStudy (samslays):

@rebeccaxhawaii I think I got it right but I am a little unsure. Can you quiclt check it for me?

OpenStudy (xguardians):

@rebeccaxhawaii @rebeccaxhawaii

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Why not explain how you got your answer? Then others could give you more specific feedback.

OpenStudy (samslays):

Well, I added the 7 and 4 from the frequency to get 11

OpenStudy (xguardians):

11 is correct.

OpenStudy (xguardians):

You receive 4 0-9, and 7 10-19, therefore a total of 11 times it happened.

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

misread.

OpenStudy (samslays):

So do I subtract 11 from 20?

OpenStudy (mathmale):

What would the purpose of doing that be?

OpenStudy (samslays):

To get the number of days

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Think: "cumulative frequency." What does that mean?

OpenStudy (samslays):

I'm reallly not sure

OpenStudy (mathmale):

"19 or fewer" means you can ignore all the lines in the table after the first 2. "cumulative" means "adding up all the previous numbers plus this one," so you are adding up 4 and 7 and getting 11 (as you just did). STOP. That's the answer you want.

http://openstudy.com/updates/4fabe622e4b059b524f7958b I found this and it looks like what I though it the right answer. Now I am confused

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

so that is how you obtained your answer?

OpenStudy (samslays):

@xGuardians That's what you said earlier

OpenStudy (xguardians):

You shouldn't be confused, you got the right answer? It's 11.

OpenStudy (samslays):

No, I just looked that up while @mathmale was trying to explain it to be @rebeccaxhawaii

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

okay then how did you get 11? what was your thought process?

OpenStudy (samslays):

Just what I said earlier. I added the 7 and 4 from the frecuency side to get 11

OpenStudy (samslays):

But you guys kept saying it was wrong so that was why I was confused. Well except @xGuardians

OpenStudy (samslays):

Anyways, thanks for your help @rebeccaxhawaii @mathmale @@xGuardians
