Question

The curve obtained by joining the points, whose X co-ordinates are the upper limits of the class intervals and Y co-ordinates are corresponding cumulative frequencies, is called

Accepted Answer

Option a: Ogive. Solution: Let us define the curve based on the given coordinates: 1. When we plot points where the X-coordinates are the upper limits of the class intervals and the Y-coordinates are the corresponding cumulative frequencies of the "less than" type, the curve obtained by joining these points is called a "Less than" Ogive (or cumulative frequency curve). 2. Similarly, a "More than" Ogive is obtained by plotting the lower limits against the "more than" cumulative frequencies. 3. Therefore, the curve joining upper limits and corresponding cumulative frequencies is an Ogive. Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
