उत्तर

The class intervals are inclusive. We will first convert them into the exclusive form.

Class-Interval Frequency
9.5-14.5 5
14.5-19.5 8
19.5-24.5 12
24.5-29.5 9
29.5-34.5 4

Steps:

  1. Draw a histogram for the given data.
  2. Mark the mid-point at the top of each rectangle of the histogram drawn.
  3. Also, mark the mid-point of the immediately lower class-interval and the mid-point of the immediately higher class-interval.
  4. Join the consecutive mid-points marked by straight lines to obtain the required frequency polygon. 

The required frequency polygon is as follows:
