(b) The table gives some information about 120 similar plants in location B.
(i) On the grid opposite, draw the cumulative frequency curve for the heights of the plants in
location B. [3]
(ii) Use the curves to estimate how many more plants had heights of over 70 cm in location A
than in location B.

(iii) The heights of the plants in location A are more consistent than the heights of the plants in
location B.
By comparing the shapes of the curves, explain how you know this is true.
