66 (a) As can be seen from either distribution, about 90 percent of the participants are older than 50, so the program is not in compliance.
66 (b) In this case, both are equally casy to use.
67 (c) The 13-interval distribution gives a better estimate because it has a class for 45-49. whereas the 7-interval distribution lumps together all observations between 40 and 49.

CONCLUSION
From these arrays we can see that high GPAs at one level tend to go with high GPAs at the other,although there are some exceptions.

12 (a) Effectiveness of order processing
13 The frequency distribution shows that most deliveries are completed within 7–12 days, indicating that the company’s order processing system is reasonably effective, though some delays
13 (b) Half deliveries in 10 days or less?
14 Deliveries ≤10 days ≈ more than half of observations fall in first two classes.
15 Yes, from the frequency distribution, the company appears to have achieved its goal of delivering at least half of its orders within 10 or fewer days.
19 (c) Use of Relative Frequency Distribution
19 A relative frequency distribution allows easy comparison and interpretation of data by showing proportions or percentages, which is difficult using only a frequency distribution.
