Histograms and frequency density
  1. histogram = bar chart where the bars can be different widths
    1. y axis = frequency density
      1. frequency density = frequency / class width
        1. frequency = frequency density x class width = area of bar
      2. Example
        1. this table and histogram show the lengths of beetles in a garden
          1. use the histogram to find the missing entry in the table
            1. the frequency = the frequency density x the class width
              1. so 18 - 15 = 3 = class width
                1. frequency density = 8
                  1. 8 x 3 = 24
                    1. the missing value is 24
