Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A frequency distribution organizes data into classes of equal size and records how many observations fall into each class. This allows for a visual representation of the distribution of the data and provides important information about the shape, center, and spread of the data. Scatter diagrams and correlational matrices are used to display relationships between variables, not frequency distributions. A variability plot is not a commonly used term in statistics.
