Let us find class marks (xi) for each interval by using the relation.

Now we may compute xi and fixias following

Number of plants Number of houses (fi) xi fixi
0 - 2 1 1 1 x 1 = 1
2 - 4 2 3 2 x 3 = 6
4 - 6 1 5 1 x 5 = 5
6 - 8 5 7 5 x 7 = 35
8 - 10 6 9 6 x 9 = 54
10 - 12 2 11 2 x 11 = 22
12 - 14 3 13 3 x 13 = 39
Total 20   162



From the table we may observe that
 

So, mean number of plants per house is 8.1.
We have used here direct method as values of class marks (xi) and fi are small.

Solution 3

Solution 4

We may find class mark of each interval (xi) by using the relation.

Class size h of this data = 3
Now taking 75.5 as assumed mean (a) we may calculate di, ui, fiui as following.

Number of heart beats per minute Number of women fi xi di = xi -75.5 fiui
65 - 68 2 66.5 - 9 - 3 - 6
68 - 71 4 69.5 - 6 - 2 - 8

80 - 83 4 81.5 6 2 8
83 - 86 2 84.5 9 3 6
Total 30       4


Now we may observe from table that

So mean hear beats per minute for these women are 75.9 beats per minute.

56 - 58 135
59 - 61 115
62 - 64 25


We may observe that class intervals are not continuous. There is a gap of 1 between two class intervals. So we have to add to upper class limit and subtract from lower class limit of each interval.
And class mark (xi) may be obtained by using the relation

Class size (h) of this data = 3

Now taking 57 as assumed mean (a) we may calculate di, ui, fiui as follows:

 

Class interval fi xi di = xi - 57 fiui
49.5 - 52.5 15 51 -6 -2 -30
52.5 - 55.5 110 54 -3 -1 -110
55.5 - 58.5 135 57 0 0 0
58.5 - 61.5 115 60 3 1 115
61.5 - 64.5 25 63 6 2 50
Total 400       25


Now, we have:
 
Clearly mean number of mangoes kept in a packing box is 57.19.

Note: We have chosen step deviation method here as values of fi, di are big and also there is a common multiple between all di.

Solution 22

We may calculate class mark (xi) for each interval by using the relation


Class size = 50

Now taking 225 as assumed mean (a) we may calculate di, ui, fiui as follows:

 

Daily expenditure (in Rs) fi xi di = xi - 225 fiui
100 - 150 4 125 -100 -2 -8
150 - 200 5 175 -50 -1 -5
200 - 250 12 225 0 0 0
250 - 300 2 275 50 1 2
300 - 350 2 325 100 2 4
Total         -7


Now we may observe that -

0.20 - 0.24 2 0.22 0.08 2 4
Total 30       -31


Solution 25

We may find class marks by using the relation



Class size (h) for this data = 10

Now taking 70 as assumed mean (a) we may calculate di, ui, and fiui as follows:

We can find cumulative frequencies with their respective class intervals as below -


Life time

Number of lamps (fi)

Cumulative frequency

1500 - 2000

14

14

2000 - 2500

56

14 + 56 = 70

2500 - 3000

60

70 + 60 = 130

3000 - 3500

86

130 + 86 = 216

3500 - 4000

74

216 + 74 = 290

4000 - 4500

62

290 + 62 = 352

4500 - 5000

48

352 + 48 = 400

Total (n)

400
 



Now we may observe that cumulative frequency just greater than is 216 belonging to class interval 3000 - 3500.
Median class = 3000 - 3500
Lower limit (l) of median class = 3000
Frequency (f) of median class = 86
Cumulative frequency (cf) of class preceding median class = 130
Class size (h) = 500


So, median life time of lamps is 3406.98 hours.

Solution 9

We may find cumulative frequencies with their respective class intervals as below

Weight (in kg) 40 - 45 45 - 50 50 - 55 55 - 60 60 - 65 65 - 70 70 - 75
Number of students (f) 2 3 8 6 6 3 2
c.f. 2 5 13 19 25 28 30


Cumulative frequency just greater than   is 19, belonging to class interval 55 - 60.
Median class = 55 - 60
Lower limit (l) of median class = 55
Frequency (f) of median class = 6
Cumulative frequency (cf) of median class = 13
Class size (h) = 5



So, median weight is 56.67 kg.

Here class width is not same. There is no need to adjust the frequencies according to class intervals. Now given frequency table is of less than type represented with upper class limits. As policies were given only to persons having age 18 years onwards but less than 60 years, we can define class intervals with their respective cumulative frequency as below


Age (in years)

Number of policy holders (fi)

Cumulative frequency (cf)

18 - 20

98 - 92 = 6

55 - 60

100 - 98 = 2

100

Total (n)

 





Now from table we may observe that n = 100.

Cumulative frequency (cf) just greater than  is 78 belonging to interval 35 - 40
So, median class = 35 - 40
Lower limit (l) of median class = 35
Class size (h) = 5
Frequency (f) of median class = 33
Cumulative frequency (cf) of class preceding median class = 45


So, median age is 35.76 years.

Solution 18

The given data is not having continuous class intervals. We can observe that difference between two class intervals is 1. So, we have to add and subtract

  to upper class limits and lower class limits.
Now continuous class intervals with respective cumulative frequencies can be represented as below:

 


Length (in mm)

Number or leaves fi

Cumulative frequency

117.5 - 126.5

126.5 - 135.5

3 + 5 = 8

135.5 - 144.5

8 + 9 = 17

144.5 - 153.5

12

17 + 12 = 29

153.5 - 162.5

5

 


29 + 5 = 34

162.5 - 171.5

4

34 + 4 = 38

171.5 - 180.5

2

38 + 2 = 40



From the table we may observe that cumulative frequency just greater then
  is 29, belonging to class interval 144.5 - 153.5.
Median class = 144.5 - 153.5
Lower limit (l) of median class = 144.5
Class size (h) = 9
Frequency (f) of median class = 12
Cumulative frequency (cf) of class preceding median class = 17



So, median length of leaves is 146.75 mm.

The cumulative frequency greater than and nearest to 140 is 182.

So, median class is 10 - 15

Lower limit (l) = 10, class size (h) = 5, c.f. = 49

Frequency of median class = 133

Hence, mean median salary is Rs. 13421.

From the table we may observe that


Clearly, mean of this data is 35.38. It represents that on an average the age of a patient admitted to hospital was 35.38 years.
As we may observe that maximum class frequency is 23 belonging to class interval 35 - 45.
So, modal class = 35 - 45
Lower limit (l) of modal class = 35
Frequency (f1) of modal class = 23
Class size (h) = 10
Frequency (f0) of class preceding the modal class = 21
Frequency (f2) of class succeeding the modal class = 14


Clearly mode is 36.8.It represents that maximum number of patients admitted in hospital were of 36.8 years.

Solution 8

From the data given as above we may observe that maximum class frequency is 61 belonging to class interval 60 - 80.
So, modal class = 60 - 80
Lower class limit (l) of modal class = 60
Frequency (f1) of modal class = 61
Frequency (f0) of class preceding the modal class = 52
Frequency (f2) of class succeeding the modal class = 38
Class size (h) = 20


 
So, modal lifetime of electrical components is 65.625 hours.

Solution 9

Solution 10

We may observe from the given data that maximum class frequency is 10 belonging to class interval 30 - 35.
So, modal class = 30 - 35
Class size (h) = 5
Lower limit (l) of modal class = 30
Frequency (f1) of modal class = 10
Frequency (f0) of class preceding modal class = 9
Frequency (f2) of class succeeding modal class = 3


It represents that most of states/U.T have a teacher - student ratio as 30.6

Now we may find class marks by using the relation


Now taking 32.5 as assumed mean (a) we may calculate di, ui and fiui as following.

So mean of data is 29.2
It represents that on an average teacher - student ratio was 29.2.

Solution 11

Solution 12

From the given data we may observe that maximum class frequency is 20 belonging to 40 - 50 class intervals.
So, modal class = 40 - 50
Lower limit (l) of modal class = 40
Frequency (f1) of modal class = 20
Frequency (f0) of class preceding modal class = 12
Frequency (f2) of class succeeding modal class = 11
Class size = 10

So mode of this data is 44.7 cars.

Solution 13

Solution 14

Solution 15

Solution 16

We may observe from the given data that maximum class frequency is 40 belonging to 1500 - 2000 intervals.
So, modal class = 1500 - 2000
Lower limit (l) of modal class = 1500
Frequency (f1) of modal class = 40
Frequency (f0) of class preceding modal class = 24
Frequency (f2) of class succeeding modal class = 33
Class size (h) = 500

 

So modal monthly expenditure was Rs. 1847.83
Now we may find class mark as


Class size (h) of give data = 500
Now taking 2750 as assumed mean (a) we may calculate di, ui and fiui as follows:

Solution 17

From the given data we may observe that maximum class frequency is 18 belonging to class interval 4000 - 5000.
So, modal class = 4000 - 5000
Lower limit (l) of modal class = 4000
Frequency (f1) of modal class = 18
Frequency (f0) of class preceding modal class = 4
Frequency (f2) of class succeeding modal class = 9
Class size (h) = 1000

So mode of given data is 4608.7 runs.

Solution 1

There are three main measure of central tendency the mode, the median and the mean.

Each of these measures describes a different indication of the typical or central value in the distribution.

The mode is the most commonly occuring value in a distribution.

Median is middle value of distribution.

While standard deviation is a measure of dispersion of a set of data from its mean.

So, the correct option is (d).

Solution 4

It is well known that relation between mean, median and mode 1 s

3 median = mode + 2 mean

Mode = 3 median - 2 mean

So, the correct option is (a).

Solution 5

Mean is an average value of any given data which cannot be determined by a graph.

Value of median and mode can easily be calculated by graph.

Median is middle value of a distribution and mode is highest frequent value of a given distribution.

So, the correct option is (a).

Solution 6

The median of a series may be determined through the graphical presentation of data in the forms of Ogives.

Ogive is a curve showing the cummulative frequency for a given set of data.

To get the median we present the data graphically in the form of 'less than' ogive  or 'more than' ogive

Then the point of intersection of the two graphs gives the value of the median.

So, the correct option is (d).

Solution 7

Histogram is used to plot the distribution of numerical data or frequency of occurrences of data.

Mode is the most commonly occurring value in the data.

So in distribution or Histogram, the value of the x-coordinate corresponding to the peak value on y - axis, is the mode.

So, the correct option is (a).

Solution 8

Mode is the most frequent value in the data.

Mode is the value which occurs the most number of times.

So, the correct option is (c).
