5. This table gives data collected from the students attending an elementary statistics course at the University of Wisconsin. These data include: sex, height, number of years in college, and the general area of intended major (Humanities (H), Social Science (S=, Biological Science (B), Physical Science (P)). a. Summarize the data of intended major in a frequency table. b. Summarize the data of year in college in a frequency table, and draw either a line diagram or a histogram. c. Plot the dot diagrams of heights separately for the male and female students, and compare.
