Solution:

D. 144°

Explanation:

(2) Different expenditures incurred on the construction of a building were shown by a pie diagram. The expenditure
Rs 45,000 on cement was shown by a sector of central angle of 75°. What was the total expenditure of the construction?
A. 2,16,000
B. 3,60,000
C. 4,50,000
D. 7,50,000

Solution:

A. 2,16,000

Explanation:

(3) Cumulative frequencies in a grouped frequency table are useful to find . . .
A. Mean

B. Median
C. Mode
D. All of these

Solution:

B. Median

Explanation:

Median is the middle value of the set of ordered data. The position of the median is given by {(n + 1)/2}^th value, where n is the number of values in a set of data.

Solution:

Explanation:

Among the given option, (X_i – A)/g is the correct option.

Where X_i = values in the given data corresponding to i^th position.

A = Assumed mean

g = class size

Thus, (C) is the correct option.

The median of the distances covered per litre shown in the above data is in the group . . .. .
A. 12-14
B. 14-16
C. 16-18
D. 18-20

Solution:

C. 16-18

Explanation:

Here, (n/2)^th = (50/2)^th = 25^th term

cf = 23 < 25 ⇒ Median class = 16-18

Median class is the next class of interval of cumulative frequency.

Thus, option (C) is correct.

The above data is to be shown by a frequency polygon. The coordinates of the points to show number of students in the class 4-6 are . . . .
A. (4, 8)
B. (3, 5)
C. (5, 8)
D. (8, 4)

Solution:

C. (5, 8)

Explanation:

So, the coordinates of the points to show number of students in the class 4-6 are (5,8).

Thus, option (C) is correct.

2. The following table shows the income of farmers in a grape season. Find the mean of their income.

Solution:

Mean is given by

⇒ Mean = 4410/84

⇒ Mean = 52.5

Now, since the income is given in thousand rupees.

Then, Mean = 52.5 × 1000

⇒ Mean = 52500

Thus, mean income is Rs. 52,500.

3. The loans sanctioned by a bank for construction of farm ponds are shown in the following table. Find the mean of the loans.

Solution:

Using given data, we can construct a table which is mentioned below.

Mean is given by

⇒ Mean = 6540/100

⇒ Mean = 65.4

Now, since the loan is given in thousand rupees.

Then, Mean = 65.4 × 1000

⇒ Mean = 65400

Thus, mean loan is Rs. 65,400.

4. The weekly wages of 120 workers in a factory are shown in the following frequency distribution table. Find the mean of the weekly wages.

Solution:

Using given data, we can construct a table which is mentioned below.

Mean is given by

⇒ Mean = 510000/120

⇒ Mean = 4250

Thus, mean weekly wages is Rs. 4250.

5. The following frequency distribution table shows the amount of aid given to 50 flood affected families. Find the mean of the amount of aid.

Solution:

Using given data, we can construct a table which is mentioned below.

Mean is given by

⇒ Mean = 3620/50

⇒ Mean = 72.4

Now, since the amount of aid is given in thousand rupees.

Then, Mean = 72.4 × 1000

⇒ Mean = 72400

Thus, mean amount of aid is Rs. 72,400.

6. The distances covered by 250 public transport buses in a day is shown in the following frequency distribution table. Find the median of the distances.

Solution:

Let us prepare cumulative frequency table:

Here, N = 250

N/2 = 250/2 = 125

Since, cumulative frequency 180 is just greater than 125. ⇒ median class = 220-230

Median is given by

Where l = lower limit of the median class

N = Sum of frequencies

h = class interval of the median class

cf = Cumulative frequency of the class preceding the median class

f = Frequency of the median class

Here, Median class = 220-230

L = 220

N/2 = 125

h = 10

cf = 100

f = 80

Putting all these values in the median formula, we get

⇒ Median = 220 + 250/80

⇒ Median = 220 + 3.125 = 223.125

Or Median is approximately 223.13 km

Thus, median of the distances is 223.13 km.

Statistics is a division of Maths that deals with the study of the collection, interpretation, arrangement, and exhibition of data. Mathematically, statistics is determined as a set of equations, used to analyse the data. Learn about the chapter Statistics at BYJU’S.
