Basic Statistics: Data Tables & Graphs

This document provides an overview of techniques for describing data using tables and graphs in basic statistics. It includes examples of how to create frequency tables and pie charts from raw data, calculate class intervals for frequency distributions, construct relative frequency histograms and polygons, create frequency distribution tables from grouped data and calculate cumulative frequencies, represent electric bill data graphically using an inclusive class interval, and display student exam study hours using stem-and-leaf plots. The document covers fundamental descriptive statistics concepts.
