Math Problem Statement
The ogive represents the heights of males in a particular country in the 20-29 age group. What height represents the 9090 Superscript th percentile? How should you interpret this? 63 65 67 69 71 73 75 0 20 40 60 80 100 Height (in inches) Percentile
An Ogive has a horizontal axis labeled Height (in inches) from 63 to 76 in increments of 1 and a vertical axis labeled Percentile from 0 to 100 in increments of 10. The graph consists of fourteen plotted points connected by line segments from left to right. The coordinates of the plotted points are at (63, 0), (64, 4), (65, 8), (66, 13), (67, 20), (68, 34), (69, 43), (70, 60), (71, 69), (72, 79), (73, 89), (74, 94), (75, 98), and (76, 100).
