Solution
The correct option is C Ogive In statistics, the ogive is the free hand graph obtained by joining the points whose x-coordinates are the upper limits of the class intervals and the y-coordinates are corresponding cumulative frequencies.
A less than ogive is constructed for cumulative frequencies arranged in ascending order and for more than ogive the cumulative frequencies are arranged in descending order.
