Question 11 Mark
Write the median class of the following distribution:
Classes Frequency
0 - 10 4
10 - 20 4
20 - 30 8
30 - 40 10
40 - 50 12
50 - 60 8
60 - 70 4
Answer
Classes

50
Here n = 50, $\therefore\ \frac{\text{n}}{2}=25$
Now, 30 - 40 is the classes whose c. f 26 is greater than (and nearest to) $\frac{\text{n}}{2}$ i.e., 25
Hence, 30 - 40 is the median class.

Question 41 Mark
Two right circular cones have their heights in the ratio 1 : 3 and radii in the ratio 3 : 1, what is the ratio of their volumes?
Answer
$\text{V}_1=\text{V}_2=\frac{1}{3}\pi(3\text{r})^2\text{h}:\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}^2(3\text{h})$
$=3:1$

Question 51 Mark
Using the empirical formula, find the mode of a distribution whose mean is 8.32 and the median is 8.05.
Answer
3 Median = 2Mean + Mode
Mode = 3(8.05) - 2(8.32)
Mode = 24.15 - 16.64
Mode = 7.51

Question 71 Mark
Find the class-marks of the classes 10-25 and 35-55.
Answer
Class mark = $\frac{\text{Upper limit+Lower limits}}{2}$
$\therefore$ Class mark of $10-25 =\frac{10+25}{2} = 17.5$
And class mark of $35-55 = \frac{35+55}{2} = 45$
class mark = 17.5, 45

Question 81 Mark
If the mean of first n natural number is 15, then find n.
Answer
The mean of the first n natural number = 15
Mean $=\frac{1+2+3+4....+\text{n}}{\text{n}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\big(\frac{\text{n}(\text{n}+1)}{2}\big)}{\text{n}}=15$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{n}+1}{2}=15$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}=29.$

Question 91 Mark
Consider the following frequency distribution:
Class
0-5
6-11
12-17
18-23
24-29
Frequency
13
10
15
8
11
Find the upper limit of the median class.
Answer
The given series is in indusive from. Converting it to exclusive from and preparing cumulative frequency table, we get
Class
Frequency
Cumulative frequency
0.5-5.5
13
13
5.5-11.5
10
23
11.5-17.5
15
38
17.5-23.5
8
46
23.5-29.5
11
57
Here, $\text{N}=57\Rightarrow\frac{\text{N}}{2}=28.5$
The cumulative frequency just greater than 28.5 is 38.
Hence, the median class is 11.5-17.5
$\therefore$ Upper limit of the median class = 17.5

  • A
    $100$
  • B
    $80$
  • C
    $90$
  • $88$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$88$
Mark $130-135$ $135-140$ $140-145$ $145-150$ $150-155$ $155-160$ $160-165$
Frequency $10$ $15$ $18$ $22$ $23$ $8$ $4$
Cumulative Frequency $10$ $25$ $43$ $65$ $88$ $96$ $100$
Therefore, the cumulative frequency of the class interval of $150-155 $ is $88.$

Question 121 Mark
If the mean and mode of a frequency distribution be 53.4 and 55.2 respectively, find the median.
Answer
Mean = 53.4
Mode = 55.2
Mode = 3Median - Mean
Hence, median = $\frac{\text{Mode}+2\text{Mean}}{3}$
$=\frac{55.2+2(53.4)}{3}$
$=\frac{55.2+106.8}{3}$
$=\frac{162}{3}$
$=54$

Question 201 Mark
The median of an ungrouped data and the median calculated when the same data is grouped are always the same. Do you think that this is a correct statement? Give reason.
Answer
The median of an ungrouped data and the median calculated when the same data is grouped are not always the same because the median for ungrouped data is calculated by arranging the data in increasing or decreasing order. But for calculating the median of a grouped data, the formula used is based on the assumption that the observations are uniformly distributed in the classes.
