Display the following dataset in a histogram. Use five bins, beginning with 60 and going by intervals of 2.

70, 61, 60, 64, 70, 65, 65, 66, 60, 61, 68, 68, 67, 65, 64, 62

How many numbers in the dataset will be in the bin that goes from 62 to just under 64?

To create a histogram with the given dataset and specified bins, we first need to determine the bin ranges based on your specifications of starting at 60 and increasing by intervals of 2.

The bins would be as follows:

  1. 60 to just under 62
  2. 62 to just under 64
  3. 64 to just under 66
  4. 66 to just under 68
  5. 68 to just under 70

Next, let's count how many numbers from the dataset fall into the bin that goes from 62 to just under 64:

Dataset: 70, 61, 60, 64, 70, 65, 65, 66, 60, 61, 68, 68, 67, 65, 64, 62

Now, we check each number to see if it fits in the bin from 62 to just under 64:

  • 70: not in the range
  • 61: not in the range
  • 60: not in the range
  • 64: not in the range
  • 70: not in the range
  • 65: not in the range
  • 65: not in the range
  • 66: not in the range
  • 60: not in the range
  • 61: not in the range
  • 68: not in the range
  • 68: not in the range
  • 67: not in the range
  • 65: not in the range
  • 64: not in the range
  • 62: in the range

Only one number (62) falls in the bin that goes from 62 to just under 64.

Thus, the answer is:
