Question

Use the given categorical data to construct the relative frequency distribution.

Natural births randomly selected from four hospitals in a highly populated region occurred on the days of the week (in the order of Monday through Sunday) with the frequencies 52, 64, 72, 55, 57, 45, 55. Does it appear that such births occur on the days of the week with equal frequency?

Construct the relative frequency distribution.

Day              Relative frequency

Monday               ___%

Tuesday            ___%

Wednesday       ___%

Thursday           ____%

Friday                ___%

Saturday             ___%

Sunday               ____%

(Type integers or decimals. Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Let the frequencies be substantially different if any frequency is at least twice any other frequency, Does it appear that these births occur on the days of the week with equal frequency?

A. Yes, it appears that births occur on the days of the week with frequencies that are about the same.

B. No, it appears that births occur on the days of the week with frequencies that are substantially different.

C. Yes, it appears that births occur on the days of the week with frequencies that are exactly the same.

D. It is impossible to determine with the given information.
