III. Long Answer Questions:
Question 1.
If the mean of the following distribution is 6, find the value of P.
Question 3.
The following table gives the literacy rate (in percentage) of 35 cities. Find the mean literacy rate.
Answer:
Assumed mean = a = 70
Class size = h = 10
∴ Mean literacy rate is 69.43%
Question 4.
A life insurance agent found the following data for distribution of ages of 100 policy holders. Calculate the median age, if policies are given only to persons having age 18 years onwards but less than 60 years.
Answer:
Given cumulative frequency distribution table convert into frequency distribution table
Cumulative greater than n/2=100/2 = 50 is 78.
∴ Median class is 35 – 40
l = 35, h = 5, f = 33 and cf=45
= 35 + 0.76
= 35.76
∴ Median age is 35.76 years.
Question 5.
The mean of the following frequency table is 50. But the frequencies f1 and f2 in class 20 – 40 and 60 – 80 respectively are missing. Find the missing frequencies.
Answer:
Assumed mean = a = 50 and h = 20
Σfi = 68 + f1 + f2 = 120
f1 + f2 = 120 – 68
f1 + f2 = 52 → (1)
0 = 4 – f1 + f2.
f1 – f2 = 4 → (2)
Adding equation (1) and (2)
f1 + f2 = 52
Put f1 = 28 in equation (1)
28 + f2 = 52
f2 = 52 – 28
f2 = 24
∴ missing frequencies f1 is 28 and f2 is 24.
