2.2.2
The median incomes of females in each state of the United States, including the District of
Columbia and Puerto Rico, are given in table #2.2.10 ("Median income of," 2013). Create a
frequency distribution, relative frequency distribution, and cumulative frequency distribution
using 7 classes.

Create a histogram and relative frequency histogram for the data in table #2.2.10. Describe the shape
and any findings you can from the graph.
21000+25000=46000/2=23000
25001+30000=55001/2=27500.50
30001+35000=65001/2=32500.50

While looking at both graphs the difference I see is that $32,500.50 seems to be the largest frequency
and amount in both graphs.
