EXERCISE 32.1 PAGE NO: 32.6

1. Calculate the mean deviation about the median of the following observation:
(i) 3011, 2780, 3020, 2354, 3541, 4150, 5000

(ii) 38, 70, 48, 34, 42, 55, 63, 46, 54, 44

(iii) 34, 66, 30, 38, 44, 50, 40, 60, 42, 51

(iv) 22, 24, 30, 27, 29, 31, 25, 28, 41, 42

(v) 38, 70, 48, 34, 63, 42, 55, 44, 53, 47

Solution:

(i) 3011, 2780, 3020, 2354, 3541, 4150, 5000

To calculate the Median (M), let us arrange the numbers in ascending order.

The median is the middle number of all the observations.

2354, 2780, 3011, 3020, 3541, 4150, 5000

So, Median = 3020 and n = 7

By using the formula to calculate the Mean Deviation,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)
xi |di| = |xi – 3020|
3011 9
2780 240
3020 0
2354 666
3541 521
4150 1130
5000 1980
Total 4546
\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

= 1/7 × 4546

= 649.42

∴ The Mean Deviation is 649.42.

(ii) 38, 70, 48, 34, 42, 55, 63, 46, 54, 44

To calculate the Median (M), let us arrange the numbers in ascending order.

The median is the middle number of all the observations.

34, 38, 42, 44, 46, 48, 54, 55, 63, 70

Here, the number of observations is even, then median = (46+48)/2 = 47

Median = 47 and n = 10

By using the formula to calculate the Mean Deviation,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)
xi |di| = |xi – 47|

∴ The Mean Deviation is 8.6.

(iii) 34, 66, 30, 38, 44, 50, 40, 60, 42, 51

To calculate the Median (M), let us arrange the numbers in ascending order.

The median is the middle number of all the observations.

30, 34, 38, 40, 42, 44, 50, 51, 60, 66

Here, the number of observations is even, then the Median = (42+44)/2 = 43

Median = 43 and n = 10

By using the formula to calculate the Mean Deviation,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)
xi |di| = |xi – 43|

The median is the middle number of all the observations.

22, 24, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 41, 42

Here, the number of observations is even, then the median = (28+29)/2 = 28.5

Median = 28.5 and n = 10

By using the formula to calculate the Mean Deviation,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)
xi |di| = |xi – 28.5|

To calculate the Median (M), let us arrange the numbers in ascending order.

The median is the middle number of all the observations.

34, 38, 43, 44, 47, 48, 53, 55, 63, 70

Here, the number of observations is even, then median = (47+48)/2 = 47.5

I

Income in ₹

II

Income in ₹

4000 3800
4200 4000
4400 4200
4600 4400
4800 4600
4800
5800

Solution:

Let us calculate the mean deviation for the first data set.

Since the data is arranged in ascending order,

4000, 4200, 4400, 4600, 4800

Median = 4400

Total observations = 5

We know that,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

Where, |di| = |xi – M|

xi |di| = |xi – 4400|

4400 0
4600 200
4800 400
Total 1200
\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

= 1/5 × 1200

= 240

Let us calculate the mean deviation for the second data set.

Since the data is arranged in ascending order,

3800, 4000, 4200, 4400, 4600, 4800, 5800

Median = 4400

Total observations = 7

We know that,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

Where, |di| = |xi – M|

xi |di| = |xi – 4400|

15.2, 27.9, 30.2, 32.5, 40.0, 52.3, 52.8, 55.2, 72.9, 79.0

We know that,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

Where, |di| = |xi – M|

The number of observations are even, then median = (40+52.3)/2 = 46.15

Median = 46.15

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

= 1/10 × 167.4

= 16.74

∴ The Mean Deviation is 16.74.

(ii) Find the mean deviation from the mean also.

We know that,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

Where, |di| = |xi – x|

So, let ‘x’ be the mean of the given observation.

x = [40.0 + 52.3 + 55.2 + 72.9 + 52.8 + 79.0 + 32.5 + 15.2 + 27.9 + 30.2]/10

= 458/10

Total 166.4
\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

= 1/10 × 166.4

= 16.64

∴ The Mean Deviation is 16.64

5. In questions 1(iii), (iv), (v), find the number of observations lying between

, where M.D. is the mean deviation from the mean.

Solution:

(iii) 34, 66, 30, 38, 44, 50, 40, 60, 42, 51

We know that,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

Where, |di| = |xi – x|

So, let ‘x’ be the mean of the given observation.

x = [34 + 66 + 30 + 38 + 44 + 50 + 40 + 60 + 42 + 51]/10

= 455/10

= 45.5

Total 90
\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

= 1/10 × 90

= 9

Now

\(\begin{array}{l}\overline{X} – M.D\end{array} \)
= 45.5 – 9 = 36.5
\(\begin{array}{l}\overline{X} + M.D\end{array} \)
= 45.5 + 9 = 54.5

So, there are a total of 6 observations between

\(\begin{array}{l}\overline{X} – M.D\end{array} \)
and 
\(\begin{array}{l}\overline{X} + M.D\end{array} \)

We know that,

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

Where, |di| = |xi – x|

So, let ‘x’ be the mean of the given observation.

x = [22 + 24 + 30 + 27 + 29 + 31 + 25 + 28 + 41 + 42]/10

= 299/10

EXERCISE 32.2 PAGE NO: 32.11

1. Calculate the mean deviation from the median of the following frequency distribution:

Heights in inches 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66
No. of students 15 20 32 35 35 22 20 10 8

Solution:

To find the mean deviation from the median, firstly, let us calculate the median.

We know, median is the middle term.

So, Median = 61

Let xi =Heights in inches

And, fi = Number of students

xi fi Cumulative Frequency |di| = |xi – M|

= |xi – 61|

N=197

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

= 1/197 × 336

= 1.70

∴ The mean deviation is 1.70.

Compute the mean deviation about the median.

Solution:

To find the mean deviation from the median, firstly, let us calculate the median.

We know, median is the even term, (3+5)/2 = 4

So, Median = 8

Let xi =Number of calls

And, fi = Frequency

xi fi Cumulative Frequency |di| = |xi – M|

= |xi – 61|

fi |di|
0 14 14 4 56
1 21 35 3 63
2 25 60 2 50
3 43 103 1 43
4 51 154 0 0
5 40 194 1 40
6 39 233 2 78
7 12 245 3 36
Total = 366
Total = 245

N = 245

\(\begin{array}{l}MD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}|d_{i}|\end{array} \)

= 1/245 × 336

= 1.49

∴ The mean deviation is 1.49.

3. Calculate the mean deviation about the median of the following frequency distribution:

Calculate the mean deviation from the median age.

Solution:

To find the mean deviation from the median, firstly, let us calculate the median.

N = 96

So, N/2 = 96/2 = 48

The cumulative frequency just greater than 48 is 59, and the corresponding value of x is 38.25

So, Median = 38.25

Class Interval xi fi Cumulative Frequency |di| = |xi – M| fi |di|

EXERCISE 32.7 PAGE NO: 32.47

1. Two plants, A and B of a factory, show the following results about the number of workers and the wages paid to them.

Plant A Plant B
No. of workers 5000 6000
Average monthly wages ₹2500 ₹2500
The variance of the distribution of wages 81 100

In which plant – A or B – is there greater variability in individual wages?

Solution:

Variation of the distribution of wages in plant A (σ2 =18)

So, the standard deviation of the distribution A (σ – 9)

Similarly, the variation of the distribution of wages in plant B (σ2 =100)

So, the standard deviation of the distribution B (σ – 10)

And, the average monthly wages in both the plants is 2500,

Since the plant with a greater value of SD will have more variability in salary.

∴ Plant B has more variability in individual wages than plant A.
