Here the maximum frequency is 28 then the corresponding class 40-45 is the model class
$\text{L}=35,\text{h}=40-35=5,\text{f}=50,\text{f}_1=34,\text{f}_2=42$
$\text{Model}=\text{L}+\frac{\text{f}-\text{h}}{2\text{f}-\text{f}_1-\text{f}_2}\times\text{h}$
$=35+\frac{50-34}{2(50)-34-42}\times5$
$=35+\frac{16\times5}{24}$
$=35+3.33$
$=35.33$

Here the maximum frequency is 28 then the corresponding class 40-50 is the model class
$\text{L}=40,\text{h}=50-40=10,\text{f}=28,\text{f}_1=12,\text{f}_2=20$
$\text{Model}=\text{L}+\frac{\text{f}-\text{f}_1}{2\text{f}-\text{f}_1-\text{f}_2}\times\text{h}$
$=40+\frac{28-12}{2\times28-12-20}\times10$
$=40+\frac{16\times10}{24}$
$=40+16.67=46.67$

Question 42 Marks
n the graphical representation of a frequency distribution, if the distance between mode and mean isk times the distance between median and mean, then write the value of k.
Answer
We know that
Mode = 3 median – 2 mean ….(i)
Now mode – mean = k (median – mean), ….(ii)
But mode – mean = 3 median – 2 mean [from (i)]
⇒ Mode – mean = 3 (median – mean) ….(iii)
Comparing (ii) and (iii)
k = 3

Question 62 Marks
find the class marks of classes 10-25 and 35-55.
Answer
We know that
Class mark $=\frac{\text{Sum of its limits}}{2}$
$\therefore$ Class mark of 10-25 $=\frac{10+25}{2}=\frac{35}{2}=17.5$
and class mark of 35-55 $=\frac{35+55}{2}=\frac{90}{2}=45$

Question 82 Marks
Calculate the mean for the following distribution:
x 5 6 7 8 9
f 4 8 14 11 3
Answer
x f fx
5 4 20
6 8 48
7 14 98
8 11 88
9 3 27
  N = 40 $\sum\text{fx}=281$
$\text{Mean}\ \bar{\text{X}}=\frac{\sum\text{fx}}{\text{N}}$
$\bar{\text{X}}=\frac{281}{40}=7.025$

Question 92 Marks
A student draws a cumulative frequency curve for the marks obtained by 40 students of a class as shown below. Find the median marks obtained by the students of the class.
Answer
Median marks
Here N = 40, then $\frac{\text{N}}{2}=\frac{40}{2}=20$
From 20 on y-axis, draw a line parallel to the x-axis meeting the curve at P and from P, draw a perpendicular on x-axis meeting it at M. Then M is the median which is 50.

N = 50
 
Here,
N = 50
$\frac{\text{N}}{2}=25$
The cumulative frequency just greater than 25 is 26.
So, the meian class is 30-40

100
 
N = 100
 
Here, N = 100
$\therefore\frac{\text{N}}{2}=50$
The cumulative frequency just greater than 50 is 60.

So, the median class is 40−50.
