\(Median\quad =\quad l+\left( \frac { \frac { N }{ 2 } -c.f }{ f } \right) \times h\)
\(Median\quad =\quad 1000+\left( \frac { 300-250 }{ 190 } \right) \times 1000\)
\(=1000+\frac { 50 }{ 190 } \times 1000\)

I term + 1
II term + 2
III term + 3
n terms + n
The mean of the new numbers is \(\bar { x } +\frac { \frac { n\left( n+1 \right) }{ 2 } }{ n } \)
\(=\bar { x } +\frac { n\left( n+1 \right) }{ 2 } \)
5.
To prove \(\sum _{ i=1 }^{ n }{ \left( { x }_{ i }-\bar { x } \right) =0 } \) / algebraic sum of deviation from mean is zero
We have, \(\bar { x } =\frac { 1 }{ n } \left( \sum _{ i=1 }^{ n }{ { x }_{ i } } \right) \)
\(n\bar { x } =\sum _{ i=1 }^{ n }{ { x }_{ i } } \)
Now, \(\sum _{ i=1 }^{ n }{ \left( { x }_{ i }-\bar { x } \right) } =\left( { x }_{ 1 }-\bar { x } \right) +\left( { x }_{ 2 }-\bar { x } \right) +.........+\left( { x }_{ n }-\bar { x } \right) \)
\(\Rightarrow \quad \ \sum _{ i=1 }^{ n }{ \left( { x }_{ i }-\bar { x } \right) } =\left( { x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 }+.........+{ x }_{ n } \right) -n\bar { x } \)
\(\Rightarrow \quad \ \sum _{ i=1 }^{ n }{ \left( { x }_{ i }-\bar { x } \right) } =\sum _{ i=1 }^{ n }{ { x }_{ i } } -n\bar { x } \)
\(\Rightarrow \quad \sum _{ i=1 }^{ n }{ \left( { x }_{ i }-\bar { x } \right) } =n\bar { x } -n\bar { x } =0\)
Hence, \(\sum _{ i=1 }^{ n }{ \left( { x }_{ i }-\bar { x } \right) } =0\)

since Median=240
Median class=200-300
Median = l+\(\left( \frac { \frac { N }{ 2 } -c.f }{ f } \right) \times h\)
\(240+200+\left( \frac { \frac { 60+f }{ 2 } -32 }{ f } \right) \times 100\)

We construct a cumulative frequency distribution of the less than type as follows:
| Daily income (in RS) | Number of workers | Cumulative frequency (cf) |
|---|---|---|
| Less than 120 | 12 | 12 |
| Less than 140 | 14 | 12+14=26 |
| Less than 160 | 8 | 26+8=34 |
| Less than 180 | 6 | 34+6=40 |
| Less than 200 | 10 | 40+10=50 |
Taking upper class limits of class intervals on x-axis and their respective frequencies on y-axis, its ogive can be drawn as follows.
11.
Here, given mode, is 54, which lies between 45-60. Therefore, the modal class is 45-60.
l=45, f1=16, f0=f, f2=12 and h=15
Mode \(=l+\left( \frac { f_{ 1 }-f_{ 0 } }{ 2f_{ 1 }-f_{ 0 }-f_{ 2 } } \right) \times h\)
\(54-45+\frac { 16-f }{ 32-f-12 } \times 15\Rightarrow 9=\frac { 16-f }{ 20-f } \times 15\\ \Rightarrow \quad 9(20-f)=15(16-f)\\ \Rightarrow \quad 180-9f=240-15f\\ \Rightarrow \quad 6f=240-180=60\Rightarrow f=10\)
Hence, required value of f is 10.
12.
Here, maximum frequency is 315 and the class corresponding to this frequency is 20-40.
| Age of patients (in years) | 0-20 | 20-40 | 40-60 | 60-80 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of patients | 35=f0 | 315=f1 | 120=f2 | 50 |
l=20, f1=315, f0=35, f2=120 and h=20
Now, mode\(=l+\left( \frac { f_{ 1 }-f_{ 0 } }{ 2f_{ 1 }-f_{ 0 }-f_{ 2 } } \right) \times h\)
\(=20+\frac { 315-35 }{ 2\times 315-35-120 } \times 20\\ =20+\frac { 280 }{ 475 } \times 20=20+11.79=31.79\)
Hence, average age of maximum number of patients is 31.79.
13.
Here, class intervals are not continuous. But mid-value xi of each class interval would be same either class interval is continuous or not continuous.
So, we solve it without making it continuous.
Also, xi are larger so we apply step-deviation method. Her, class width (h)=5. Table for the given data is
| Number of heart beats/minute | Class marks (xi) | Number of women (fi) | \(u_{ i }=\frac { x_{ i }-72 }{ 5 } \) | fiui |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 65-69 | 67 | 2 | -1 | -2 |
| 70-74 | 72=a | 18 | 0 | 0 |
| 75-79 | 77 | 16 | 1 | 16 |
| 80-84 | 82 | 4 | 2 | 8 |
| Total | \(\sum { f_{ i }=40 } \) | \(\sum { f_{ i }u_{ i } } =72\) |
We have, a = 72, h = 5, \(\sum { f_{ i }=40 } \) and \(\sum { f_{ i }u_{ i } } =72\)
By step-deviation method,
Mean
\(\left( \overline { x } \right) =a+\frac { \sum { f_{ i } } }{ \sum { f_{ i }u_{ i } } } \times h=72+\frac { 22 }{ 40 } \times 5=72+2.75=74.75\)
14.
Here, class width, h = 20 - 10- = 10. Nw, let the assumed
Mean, a = 35.
Then, table for the given data is
| Class | xi | fi | \(u_{ i }=\frac { x_{ i }-a }{ h } \) | fiui |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10-20 | \(\frac { 10+20 }{ 2 } =15\) | 4 | \(\frac { 15-35 }{ 10 } =\frac { -20 }{ 10 } =-2\) | -8 |
| 20-30 | \(\frac { 20+30 }{ 2 } =25\) | 28 | \(\frac { 25-35 }{ 10 } =\frac { -10 }{ 10 } =-1\) | -28 |
| 30-40 | \(\frac { 30+40 }{ 2 } =35=a\) | 15 | \(\frac { 35-35 }{ 10 } =\frac { 0 }{ 10 } =0\) | 0 |
| 40-50 | \(\frac { 40+50 }{ 2 } =45\) | 20 | \(\frac { 45-35 }{ 10 } =\frac { 10 }{ 10 } =1\) | 20 |
| 50-60 | \(\frac { 50+60 }{ 2 } =55\) | 17 | \(\frac { 55-35 }{ 10 } =\frac { 20 }{ 10 } =2\) | 34 |
| 60-70 | \(\frac { 60+70 }{ 2 } =65\) | 16 | \(\frac { 65-35 }{ 10 } =\frac { 30 }{ 10 } =3\) | 48 |
| Total | \(\sum { f_{ i } } =100\) | \(\sum { f_{ i }u_{ i } } =66\) |
Now, we have,
\(\sum { f_{ i }u_{ i } } =66\), \(\sum { f_{ i } } =100\), a=35 and h=10
Mean \((\overline { x } )=a+\left( \frac { \sum { f_{ i }u_{ i } } }{ \sum { f_{ i } } } \right) \times h\)
\(=35+\frac { 66 }{ 100 } \times 10\)
\(=35+\frac { 66 }{ 100 } \)
\(=35+6.6=41.6\)
15.
Let the assumed mean, a=17. Now, let us make the following table.
| Class | Frequency | xi | di=xi-a | fidi |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2-8 | 6 | 5 | 5-17=-12 | 6(-12)=-72 |
| 8-14 | 3 | 11 | 11-17=-6 | 3(-6)=-18 |
| 14-20 | 12 | 17=a | 17-17=0 | 12x0=0 |
| 20-26 | 11 | 23 | 23-17=6 | 11x6=66 |
| 26-32 | 8 | 29 | 29-17=12 | 8x12=96 |
| Total | \(\sum { f_{ i } } =40\) | \(\sum { f_{ i }d_{ i } } =72\) |
Here, \(\sum { f_{ i } } =40\) and \(\sum { f_{ i }d_{ i } } =72\)
Mean \(\left( \overline { x } \right) =a+\frac { \sum { f_{ i }d_{ i } } }{ \sum { f_{ i } } } \)
\(=17+\frac { 72 }{ 40 } =17+1.8\)
\(=18.8\)
