1. In football, rushing yards is the distance a player moves forward with the football in a running play (as opposed to a passing or kicking play). The table below lists the cumulative rushing yards for CFL players in 2012.

   

   1. Decide on an appropriate class size for the data (in the billionaire example, classes were each 10 billion (the width of each interval was 10 billion)).
      
      
      
      
   2. Use your classes to make a frequency distribution table.
      
      
      
      
      
      
   3. Draw a histogram to display the information in your frequency distribution. Be sure to include an appropriate title and labels for the axes.
      
      
      
      
      
      
   4. Describe how the data is distributed. What does this tell you about how running players are used on a football team?
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
2. Each of the following histograms gives the heights of people in a room. Describe the distribution for each histogram and what you would see looking into the room.
