Data from a survey of 1046 adults age 50 and older were summarized in the AARP Bulletin
Question:
Data from a survey of 1046 adults age 50 and older were summarized in the AARP Bulletin (November 2009). The following table gives relative frequency distributions of the responses to the question, “How much do you plan to spend for holiday gifts this year?” for respondents age 50 to 64 and for respondents age 65 and older. Construct a histogram for each of the two age groups and comment on the differences between the two age groups. (Notice that the interval widths in the relative frequency distribution are not the same, so you shouldn’t use relative frequency on the y-axis for your histograms.)
Amount Plan to Spend Relative Frequency for Age Group 50 to 64 Relative Frequency for Age Group 65 and Older less than $100 .20 .36 $100 to ,$200 .13 .11 $200 to ,$300 .16 .16 $300 to ,$400 .12 .10 $400 to ,$500 .11 .05 $500 to ,$1000 .28 .22
