X X х х X х х X X X X X X X + х х х X х х х х X х х х х х х Х + 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Age of musician X X X The range of the ages shown is 8 years. There are 34 musicians included in the data. Fewer of the musicians started to play at age 12 than at age 5. Most of the musicians started to play at age 9 or older.

Answer 1

From the graph

Highest age of the musicians = 12

Loweat age = 4

Range = 12 - 4 = 8

Total number of people = 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 = 34

Age 4 = 2 people

Age 5 = 3

Age 6 = 4

Age 7 = 5

Age 8 = 6

Age 9 = 5

Age 10 = 4

Age 11 = 3

Age 12 = 2

Fewer of the musician play at the age of 12 than at the age of 5

Option D is not true. Number of musicians started to play at the age of 9 decrease downward.
