    For his science class, Alex must present on the levels of air pollution in his city. He has collected readings, on 30 separate occasions, of the amount of carbon monoxide (CO) in the air in parts per million (PPM) below. He has organized his data in a table, but how can he create a data display that will clearly illustrate the air pollution? 
    ::亚历克斯在科学课上必须介绍他所在城市的空气污染程度。他在30个不同场合收集了以下百万分之一(PPM)部分空气中一氧化碳(CO)含量的读数。 他将数据整理成一张表格,但是他如何制作一个数据展示,以清楚地说明空气污染?

    In this concept, you will learn how to create and read frequency tables. 
    ::在此概念中,您将学会如何创建和阅读频率表。

    Creating and Reading Frequency Tables
    ::创建和阅读频率表格

    Data is a set of numerical or non-numerical information. Data can be analyzed in many different ways. In this concept you will analyze numerical data using frequency tables.
    ::数据是一组数字或非数字信息。数据可以多种不同方式分析。在此概念下,您将使用频率表分析数字数据。

    A frequency table  shows the frequency, or amount of occurrences, of a specific category or group of data. Said another way, a frequency table shows the number of times that a group of data occurred.
    ::频率表显示特定类别或数据组的频率或发生次数。换句话说,频率表显示一组数据发生的次数。

    Groups of data are referred to as bins . Bins can be many different sizes, but they never overlap. The size of the bins is determined by the range of the data.
    ::数据组称为文件夹。 文件夹可以是许多不同的大小, 但它们从不重叠。 文件夹的大小由数据范围决定 。

    The range  of a set of data is the difference between the largest and smallest values. The range identifies how far apart the values in the data set are. 
    ::一组数据的范围是最大值和最小值之间的差别。该范围确定数据集中值的距离。

    A frequency table has two columns, one for the bins (or categories) and the other for the number of occurrences. 
    ::频率表有两列,一列用于文件夹(或类别),另一列用于发生次数。

    Let's look at an example. 
    ::让我们举个例子。

    Twenty people were asked how many hours they sleep each night. The results of the survey are listed below. Create a frequency table to display the data.
    ::20人被问及他们每晚睡几小时,调查结果如下:

    7, 8, 6, 9, 10, 12, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 7, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 9

    First, create a two column table. The left hand column will be the number of hours and the right will be the frequency. Since the range of the data is relatively small, each bin will be one hour. 
    ::首先,创建两个列表。左手列是小时数,右手列是频率。由于数据范围相对较小,每个文件箱为一小时。

    Sleep Data
    Bins: Number of Hours Slept Frequency
    5  
    6  
    7  
    8  
    9  
    10  
    11  
    12  

    Next, calculate the frequency of each bin. To do this, count up how many data points are 5 and place this value in the right column of the table. Then count up how many data points are 6 and place this value in the table. Continue until the entire table is complete. 
    ::下一步计算每个文件夹的频率。 要做到这一点, 请计数 5 个数据点, 然后将此值放在表格的右列中。 然后计数 6 个数据点, 然后将此值放在表格中。 继续直到整个表格完成 。

    The answer is the table should look like the one below.
    ::答案是,表格应该像下面的表格。

    Sleep Data
    Bins: Number of Hours Slept Frequency
    5 1
    6 2
    7 4
    8 3
    9 3
    10 3
    11 2
    12 2

    Let's look at another example.
    ::让我们再举一个例子。

    The data set below represents the amount of time (in minutes) 20 middle school students spent on the computer each day. Create a frequency table to display the data.
    ::下面的数据集代表每天20名中学生花在计算机上的时间(以分钟计),创建一个显示数据的频率表。

    10, 32, 8, 55, 5, 0, 30, 20, 25, 45, 40, 60, 45, 15, 5, 56, 47, 12, 15, 20

    First, create a two column table. The left hand column will be the number of hours and the right will be the frequency.
    ::首先,创建两个列表。左手列将是小时数,右手列是频率。

    Next, determine the size of the bins. The range of this data is from 0 to 60 minutes. Given this relatively larger range of data, we will create bins of size 10.
    ::下一步, 确定文件夹的大小。 此数据的范围为 0 至 60 分钟。 如果数据范围相对较大, 我们将创建大小为 10 的文件夹 。

    Computer Time
    Bins: Minutes Spent on Computer Frequency
    0-10  
    11-20  
    21-30  
    31-40  
    41-50  
    51-60  

    Next, calculate the frequency of each bin. To do this, count up how many data points are between 0 and 10, and place this value in the right column of the table. Then count up how many data points are between 11 and 20, and place this value in the table. Continue until the entire table is complete. 
    ::下一步计算每个文件夹的频率。 要做到这一点, 请计数 0 和 10 之间的数据点, 并将此值放在表格的右列中。 然后计数 11 和 20 之间的数据点, 并将此值放在表格中。 继续直到整个表格完成 。

    The table should look like the one below.
    ::表格应与下表相仿。

    Computer Time
    Bins: Minutes Spent on Computer Frequency
    0-10 5
    11-20 5
    21-30 2
    31-40 2
    41-50 3
    51-60 3

    Alex's data is not well organized and does not clearly indicate the amount of pollution that is present in the city. A frequency table would be a better way to display his data. 
    ::亚历克斯的数据没有很好地组织,也没有明确说明城市中的污染程度。 频率表是展示他数据的更好方法。

    To create a frequency table, first create a two column table. The left hand column of the table will be the amount of carbon monoxide (CO levels) in parts per million (PPM) and the right column will be the frequency. 
    ::要创建频率表, 请先创建两列表格。 表格的左手列将是百万分数的一氧化碳( CO 水平) , 右栏是频率 。

    Next, determine the size of the bins. The range of this data is from 4 to 74 PPM. Given this large range of data, we will create bins of size 10, starting at 0.
    ::下一步, 确定文件夹的大小。 此数据的范围为 4 到 74 PPM 。 鉴于此大范围的数据, 我们将创建大小为 10 的文件夹, 从 0 开始 。

    City Air Pollution 
    Bins: CO Level (PPM) Frequency
    0-10  
    11-20  
    21-30  
    31-40  
    41-50  
    51-60  
    61-70  
    71-80  

    Next, calculate the frequency of each bin. To do this, count up how many data points are between 0-10, and place this value in the right column of the table. Then count up how many data points are between 11-20, and place this value in the table. Continue until the entire table is complete. 
    ::下一步计算每个文件夹的频率。 为此, 请计算 0- 10 之间的数据点, 并将此值放在表格的右列中。 然后计算在 11-20 之间的数据点, 并将此值放在表格中。 继续直到整个表格完成 。

    The answer is the table should look like the one below. The frequency table below is a better visual representation of the data table that Alex started with. In reading the table, one can more easily see the frequency of the amount of pollution in Alex's city. 
    ::答案是表格应该像下面的表。下面的频率表是Alex开始的数据表的更直观的表示。在阅读表格时,人们可以更容易地看到亚历克斯城市污染程度的频率。

    6 9 4 12 11 5 7 9 13 5 6 10 14 7 8

    First, create a two column table. The left hand column will be the height (in meters) and the right will be the frequency.
    ::首先,创建两个列表。左手列将是高度(米),右手列是频率。

    Next, determine the size of the bins. The range of this data is from 4 to 14 minutes. Given this relatively medium sized range of data, we will create bins of size 2, starting at 4.
    ::下一步, 确定文件夹的大小。 此数据的范围为 4 至 14 分钟。 鉴于此相对中等的数据范围, 我们将从 4 开始创建大小为 2 的文件夹 。

    Bounce Height
    Bins: Height (meters) Frequency
    4-5  
    6-7  
    8-9  
    10-11  
    12-13  
    14-15  

    Next, calculate the frequency of each bin. To do this, count up how many data points are between 4-5, and place this value in the right column of the table. Then count up how many data points are between 6-7, and place this value in the table. Continue until the entire table is complete. 
    ::下一步计算每个文件夹的频率。 要做到这一点, 请计算在 4-5 之间有多少数据点, 并将此值放在表格右列中。 然后计算在 6-7 之间有多少数据点, 然后将此值放在表格中。 继续直到整个表格完成 。

    Next, analyze the data by looking at the frequencies of the heights and state one conclusion. 
    ::接下来,通过观察高度的频率来分析数据 并给出一个结论

    The first answer is the table should look like the one below. The second answer is one conclusion that can be stated about the data is: when dropped the ball most frequently reached a height of 6 or 7 meters.
