In the above frequency distribution, the marks 30 are present in the class of interval 30 – 40 and not in the interval 20 – 30. Similarly, marks 40 are present in the class of interval 40 – 50 and not in 30 – 40.

4. Fill in the blanks:

(a) A quantity which can very from one individual to another is called a ………….

(b) Sizes of shoes are ……….. variables.

(c) Daily temperatures is ……….. variable.

(d) The range of the data 7, 13, 6, 25, 18, 20, 16 is …………

(e) In the class interval 35 – 46; the lower limit is ………. and upper limit is ………

(f) The class mark of class interval 22 – 29 is ………. .

Solution:

(a) Variable.

(b) Discrete variables.

(c) Continuous variable.

(d) The range is 25 – 6 = 19

(e) Lower limit is 35 and upper limit is 46

(f) The class mark is 22 – 29 = (22 + 29)/2

= 51/2

= 25.5

5. Find the actual lower class limits, upper class limits and the mid-values of the classes: 10 – 19, 20 – 29, 30 – 39 and 40 – 49.

Solution:

For the class interval: 10 – 19, 

Lower class limit is 10

Upper class limit is 19

So, the mid-value is (10 + 19)/2 = 14.5

For the class interval: 20 – 29,

Lower class limit is 20

Upper class limit is 29

So, the mid-value is (20 + 29)/2 = 24.5

For the class interval: 30 – 39,

Lower class limit is 30

Upper class limit is 39

So, the mid-value is (30 + 39)/2 = 34.5

For the class interval: 40 – 49, 

Lower class limit is 40

Upper class limit is 49

So, the mid-value is (40 + 49)/2 = 44.5

6. Find the actual lower and upper class limits and also the class marks of the classes:

1.1 – 2.0, 2.1 -3.0 and 3.1 – 4.0.

Solution:

For the class interval: 1.1 – 2.0, 

The lower class limit is 1.1 and the upper class limit is 2.0

Hence, the class mark is (1.1 + 2.0)/2 = 1.55

For the class interval: 2.1 – 3.0 

The lower class limit is 2.1 and the upper class limit is 3.0

Hence, the class mark is (2.1 + 3.0)/2 = 2.55

For the class interval: 3.1 – 4.0

The lower class limit is 3.1 and the upper class limit is 4.0

Hence, the class mark is (3.1 + 4.0)/2 = 3.55

7. Use the table given below to find:

(a) The actual class limits of the fourth class.

(b) The class boundaries of the sixth class.

(c) The class mark of the third class.

(d) The upper and lower limits of the fifth class.

(e) The size of the third class.

Solution:

(a) The actual class limits of the fourth class will be: 44.5 – 49.5.

(b) The class boundaries of the sixth class will be: 54.5 – 59.5

(c) The class mark of the third class will be the average of the lower limit and the upper limit of the class interval

Hence, the class mark is (40 + 44)/2 = 84/2 = 42

(d) The upper and lower limits of the fifth class are 54 and 50 respectively

(e) The size of the third class is (44 – 40 + 1) = 5
