Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Initialization
The first data value's cumulative relative frequency is the same as its relative frequency.
Let's denote the list of data values as \(V = [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]\) and their corresponding relative frequencies as \(RF = [0.28, 0.24, 0.04, 0.2, 0.24]\).
Step 2: Iteration for data value \(V[0] = 4\)
The cumulative relative frequency (CRF) for the first value is directly the relative frequency: \(CRF[0] = RF[0] = 0.28\).
Step 3: Iteration for data value \(V[1] = 5\)
Calculate the cumulative relative frequency for the current data value by adding its relative frequency to the cumulative relative frequency of the previous data value: \(CRF[1] = CRF[0] + RF[1] = 0.28 + 0.24 = 0.52\).
Step 4: Iteration for data value \(V[2] = 6\)
Calculate the cumulative relative frequency for the current data value by adding its relative frequency to the cumulative relative frequency of the previous data value: \(CRF[2] = CRF[1] + RF[2] = 0.52 + 0.04 = 0.56\).
Step 5: Iteration for data value \(V[3] = 7\)
Calculate the cumulative relative frequency for the current data value by adding its relative frequency to the cumulative relative frequency of the previous data value: \(CRF[3] = CRF[2] + RF[3] = 0.56 + 0.2 = 0.76\).
Step 6: Iteration for data value \(V[4] = 8\)
Calculate the cumulative relative frequency for the current data value by adding its relative frequency to the cumulative relative frequency of the previous data value: \(CRF[4] = CRF[3] + RF[4] = 0.76 + 0.24 = 1\).
Finalization
The cumulative relative frequency of the last data value equals 1 (or very close to 1, considering rounding errors), validating the correctness of the cumulative relative frequencies calculated.
Final Answer:
The cumulative relative frequency table is: \(CRF = [0.28, 0.52, 0.56, 0.76, 1]\).
