10. A histogram shows the frequencies of the values of the variable of interest in a set of data where the data have been assigned to specific groupings (bins or categories). The height of each bar is proportional to the relative frequency in the data set of the group it represents. As an example consider: Multiplying the heights by the widths of the bars and adding all the areas gives the total area under in the bars (red). True or false?: the area of any one bar divided by the total area equals Pr(an observation falls in that grouping).
