Construct a histogram to display the data shown in the frequency table.
State whether the following statements about the data are accurate:
The data shows that most people travel to work by car or by walking, since most travel times are fairly short, and only a few people travel by bus or train.
The data suggests that people prefer a shorter commute to work. A majority live within 40 minutes travel, and in general the longer the commute the less people there are in that category.
The data suggests that people don't care too much about how far away from work they live. Roughly equal portions of people live less than 40 minutes away and more than 40 minutes away.
The data shows that everyone lives within an hours travel from their work, with the peak amount of people living between 20 and 40 minutes away.
