Construct a histogram of your empirical data using eight bars and then five bars. For consistency's sake, for eight bars use the class width of 0.125. So, your first bar will be 0.000-0.124, your next bar will be 0.125 - 0.249, etc. For five bars, use the class width of 0.2. So, your first bar will be 0.00-0.19, your next bar will be 0.2-0.39, etc. Upload both pictures of your histograms. ***Below are my 50 random numbers. What do I...
