Step-by-step solution

6 steps

Part a· 1 step

  1. Identify the score range for a student who scored 85.

    A score of 85 falls within the range of 80-89.
    The student will be added to the bar representing scores from 80-89\boxed{\text{80-89}}.

Part b11

  1. Identify the number of students in categories with scores less than 70.

    Scores less than 70 include the categories 50-59 and 60-69.

    • Students scoring 50-59: 6
    • Students scoring 60-69: 5
  2. Sum the number of students in these categories.

    Total students=6+5=11\text{Total students} = 6 + 5 = 11

    11\boxed{11} students scored less than 70.

Part c

50-59 and 80-89\text{50-59 and 80-89}

  1. Determine the most popular category and its frequency.

    The most popular category is 70-79, with 8 students.

  2. Calculate the target total frequency.

    One less than the most popular category is 8−1=78 - 1 = 7 students.

  3. Find two categories whose frequencies sum to the target total of 7.

    • Category 50-59 has 6 students.
    • Category 80-89 has 1 student.
    6+1=76 + 1 = 7

    The two categories are 50-59 and 80-89\boxed{\text{50-59 and 80-89}}.
