Statistics Solution of TS & AP Board Class 10 Mathematics


Exercise 14.1

Question 1.

A survey was conducted by a group of students as a part of their environment awareness programmed, in which they collected the following data regarding the number of plants in 20 houses in a locality. Find the mean number of plants per house.


Answer:

Let’s find mean of the data using direct method.

First, construct a table for ease of calculation.

Mean is given by

⇒ Mean = 162/20

⇒ Mean = 8.1

Thus, mean number of plants per house is 8.1.



Question 2.

Consider the following distribution of daily wages of 50 workers of a factory.

Find the mean daily wages of the workers of the factory by using an appropriate method.


Answer:

Let’s find mean of the data using assumed mean method.

We are using assumed mean method to avoid miscalculation and false answer, as xi’s are large in this question.

First, construct a table for ease of calculation.

Mean is given by

Where A = assumed mean

⇒ 

⇒ Mean = 325 – 12 = 313

Thus, mean daily wages of the workers is Rs. 313.



Question 3.

The following distribution shows the daily pocket allowance of children of a locality. The mean pocket allowance is ` 18. Find the missing frequency f.


Answer:

To find f, we’ll need to find mean pocket allowance by direct method and equate it to the given mean pocket allowance, 18.

So, let’s construct a table finding midpoints and stating frequencies.

Mean is given by

⇒  [given, mean = 18]

⇒ 18(44 + f) = 752 + 20f

⇒ 792 + 18f = 752 + 20f

⇒ 20f – 18f = 792 – 752

⇒ 2f = 40

⇒ f = 40/2

⇒ f = 20

Thus, the missing frequency f is 20.



Question 4.

Thirty women were examined in a hospital by a doctor and their of heart beats per minute were recorded and summarized as shown. Find the mean heart beats per minute for these women, choosing a suitable method.


Answer:

We shall use assumed mean method to find mean heart beats per minute, as this data has large values of xi’s and has a risk of miscalculation. But by using assumed mean method, we’ll be able to solve it with ease and more accuracy.

Mean is given by

⇒ 

⇒ 

⇒ 

⇒ Mean = 75.9

Thus, mean heart beats per minute of these women is 75.9.



Question 5.

In a retail market, fruit vendors were selling oranges kept in packing basket. These baskets contained varying number of oranges. The following was distribution of oranges.

Find the mean number of oranges kept in each basket. Which method of finding the mean did you choose?


Answer:

We shall use assumed mean method to find mean number of oranges.

So, while converting data into exclusive type won’t change any calculation in finding mean, we are however converting the inclusive data type to exclusive data type for better representation.

Mean is given by

⇒ 

⇒ Mean = 22 + 0.3125

⇒ Mean = 22.3125

Thus, mean number of oranges is 22.31.

We have used assumed mean method here, because of larger data values of fi’s. Assumed mean method gives result to accuracy and ease when data is large.



Question 6.

The table below shows the daily expenditure on food of 25 households in a locality.

Find the mean daily expenditure on food by a suitable method.


Answer:

Let’s find mean of the data using assumed mean method for ease of calculation.

⇒ Mean = 211

Thus, mean daily expenditure on food is 211.



Question 7.

To find out the concentration of  in the air (in parts per million, i.e., ppm), the data was collected for 30 localities in a certain city and is presented below:

Find the mean concentration of  in the air.


Answer:

Let’s find mean of the data using direct method as data given have smaller values.

First, construct a table for ease of calculation.

Mean is given by

⇒ Mean = 2.96/30

⇒ Mean = 0.0987

Or approximately, mean = 0.099

Thus, mean concentration of SO2 in the air is 0.099 ppm.



Question 8.

A class teacher has the following attendance record of 40 students of a class for the whole term. Find the mean number of days a student was present out of 56 days in the term

First, construct a table for ease of calculation.

Mean is given by

⇒ Mean = 1961/40

⇒ Mean = 49.025

Or approximately, mean = 49

Thus, mean number of days a student was present is 49.



Question 9.

The following table gives the literacy rate (in percentage) of 35 cities. Find the mean literacy rate.


Answer:

Let’s find mean of the data using direct method as data given have smaller values.

First, construct a table for ease of calculation.

Mean is given by

⇒ Mean = 2430/35

⇒ Mean = 69.429

Or approximately, mean = 69.43

Thus, mean literacy rate is 69.43%.

The following table shows the ages of the patients admitted in a hospital during a year :

Find the made and the mean of the data given above. Compare and interpret the two measures of central tendency.


Answer:

For mode:

Here, highest frequency is 23.

So, the modal class = 35-45

Mode is given by

Where,

L = Lower class limit of the modal class = 35

h = class interval of the modal class = 10

f1 = frequency of the modal class = 23

f0 = frequency of the class preceding the modal class = 21

f2 = frequency of the class succeeding the modal class = 14

Substituting values in the formula of mode,

⇒ 

⇒ Mode = 35 + 20/11

⇒ Mode = 36.8

For mean:

Let’s draw a table showing midpoints and frequencies.

Mean is given by

⇒ Mean = 2830/80

⇒ Mean = 35.37

Thus, mode is 36.8 and mean is 35.37.

The mode shows maximum number of patients admitted in the hospital is of age 36.8 years approximately and mean shows that on an average, number of patients admitted is of age 35.37 years.



Question 2.

The following data gives the information on the observed life times (in hours) of 225 electrical components :

Determine the modal lifetimes of the components.

f1 = frequency of the modal class = 40

f0 = frequency of the class preceding the modal class = 24

f2 = frequency of the class succeeding the modal class = 33

Substituting values in the formula of mode,

⇒ 

⇒ Mode = 1500 + 347.8

⇒ Mode = 1847.8

For mean:

Using assumed-mean method, as values of the data are large.

Let’s draw a table showing midpoints and frequencies.

Mean is given by

⇒ 

⇒ Mean = 2750 – 87.5

⇒ Mean = 2662.5

Thus, mode is 1847.8 and mean is 2662.5.

Exercise 14.3

Question 1.

The following frequency distribution gives the monthly consumption of electricity of 68 consumers of a locality. Find the median, mean and mode of the data and compare them.


Answer:

Let’s draw a table showing midpoints, frequencies and cumulative frequency.

For median:

We have, total frequency, N = 68

N/2 = 68/2 = 34

Observe, cf = 42 is just greater than 34.

Thus, median class = 125-145

Median is given by

Where,

L = Lower class limit of median class = 125

N/2 = 34

cf = cumulative frequency of the class preceding median class = 22

f = frequency of the median class = 20

h = class interval of the median class = 20

Substituting these values in the formula of median, we get

⇒ Median = 125 + 12

⇒ Median = 137

For mean:

Mean is given by

⇒ 

⇒ Mean = 135 + 2.06

⇒ Mean = 137.06

For mode:

Here, highest frequency is 20.

So, the modal class = 125-145

Mode is given by

Where,

L = Lower class limit of the modal class = 125

h = class interval of the modal class = 20

f1 = frequency of the modal class = 20

f0 = frequency of the class preceding the modal class = 13

f2 = frequency of the class succeeding the modal class = 14

Substituting values in the formula of mode,

⇒ 

⇒ Mode = 125 + 10.76

⇒ Mode = 135.76

Thus, median is 137, mean is 137.06 and mode is 135.76.

Median and mean, both gives us the average value of a data, with just the difference that mean can give us quantitative measure only but median can give us both quantitative as well as qualitative measure of a data. And that is why, mean and median have come out to be very close in this question.

Mode gives the value that appears most in a given data. Thus, the maximum monthly consumption of electricity is 135.76.



Question 2.

If the median of 60 observations, given below is 28.5, find the values of x and y.


Answer:

For median:

Since, given that: Median = 28.5

We know, median class = 20-30

Median is given by

Where,

L = Lower class limit of median class = 20

N/2 = 60/2 = 30 [∵, given: total observation = 60]

cf = cumulative frequency of the class preceding median class = 5 + x

f = frequency of the median class = 20

h = class interval of the median class = 10

Substituting these values in the formula of median, we get

⇒ Median = 20 + (25 – x)/2

⇒ 28.5 = (40 + 25 – x)/2

⇒ 57 = 65 – x

⇒ x = 65 – 57 = 8

Recall, N = 45 + x + y = 60 [given]

And x = 8

⇒ 45 + 8 + y = 60

⇒ 53 + y = 60

⇒ y = 60 – 53

⇒ y = 7

Thus, x = 8 and y = 7.



Question 3.

Where,

L = Lower class limit of median class = 45

N/2 = 267

cf = cumulative frequency of the class preceding median class = 244

f = frequency of the median class = 92

h = class interval of the median class = 5

Substituting these values in the formula of median, we get

⇒ 

⇒ Median = 45 + 115/92

⇒ Median = 45 + 1.25

⇒ Median = 46.25

Thus, the median is 46.25.



Question 4.

The lengths of 40 leaves of a plant are measured correct to the nearest millimeter, and the data obtained is represented in the following table :

Find the median length of the leaves. (Hint : The data needs to be converted to continuous classes for finding the median, since the formula assumes continuous classes. The classes then change to 117.5 – 126.5, 126.5 – 135.5, ….., 171.5 – 180.5.)


Answer:

We’ll convert this inclusive data into exclusive data type.

For median:

We have, total frequency, N = 40

N/2 = 40/2 = 20

Observe, cf = 29 is just greater than 20.

Thus, median class = 144.5-153.5

Median is given by

Where,

L = Lower class limit of median class = 144.5

N/2 = 20

cf = cumulative frequency of the class preceding median class = 17

f = frequency of the median class = 12

h = class interval of the median class = 9

Substituting these values in the formula of median, we get

⇒

N/2 = 200

cf = cumulative frequency of the class preceding median class = 130

f = frequency of the median class = 86

h = class interval of the median class = 500

Substituting these values in the formula of median, we get

⇒ 

⇒ Median = 3000 + 406.98

⇒ Median = 3406.98

Thus, the median is 3406.98 hours.

For mean:

Mean is given by

⇒  [Refer the values from the table given above]

⇒ Mean = 8.32

For mode:

Here, highest frequency is 40.

So, the modal class = 7-10

Mode is given by

Where,

L = Lower class limit of the modal class = 7

h = class interval of the modal class = 3

f1 = frequency of the modal class = 40

f0 = frequency of the class preceding the modal class = 30

f2 = frequency of the class succeeding the modal class = 16

Substituting values in the formula of mode,

⇒
