Question 521 Mark
Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions (A) and Reason(s) (R) have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion: If the mean of five observations x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6, x + 8 is 11, then mean of last three observations is 8.
Reason: Mean of n observations $\frac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}.$
  1. Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct enatixplaon of assertion.
  2. Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
  3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
  4. Assertion is false but reason is true.
Answer
  1. Assertion is false but reason is true.
Solution:
$\text{Mean}=\frac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}$
$11=\frac{\text{x}+\text{x}+2+\text{x}+4\text{x}+6\text{x}+8}{5}$
$55=5\text{x}+20$
$5\text{x}=35$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=7$ 
Mean of last three observations
$\frac{11+13+15}{3}=\frac{39}{3}=13$

Reason: $\bar{\text{x}}=\frac{\sum\text{f}_\text{i}\text{x}_\text{i}}{\sum\text{f}_\text{i}}$
  1. Both Assertion and reason are correct and reason is correct explanation for Assertion.

  1. Both Assertion and reason are correct and reason is correct explanation for Assertion.
  2. Both Assertion and reason are correct but reason is not correct explanation for Assertion.
  3. Assertion is correct but reason is false.
  4. Both Assertions and reason are false.
