Question 1.
Evaluate the following :
i) (1 + tan θ + sec θ) (1 + cot θ – cosec θ)
ii) (sin θ + cos θ)² + (sin θ – cos θ)²
iii) (sec² θ – 1) (cosec² θ – 1) (AS₁)
Solution:
i) (1 + tan θ + sec θ) (1 + cot θ – cosec θ)
= (1 + tan θ + sec θ)

ii) (sin θ + cos θ)² + (sin θ – cos θ)²
(sin θ + cos θ)² = sin² θ + cos² θ + 2 sin θ cos θ …………. (1)
(sin θ – cos θ)² = sin² θ + cos² θ – 2 sin θ cos θ ……………. (2)
Adding (1) & (2)
sin² θ + cos² θ + 2 sin θ (cos θ) + sin² θ + cos² θ – 2 sin θ (cos θ)
= 2 (sin² θ + cos² θ)
= 2(1) = 2

iii) (sec² θ – 1) (cosec² θ – 1)
sec² θ – 1 = tan² θ …………… (1)
[∵ 1 + tan² θ = sec² θ ⇒ tan² θ = sec² θ – 1]
cosec² θ – 1 = cot² θ …………… (2)
[∵ 1 + cot² θ = cosec² θ ⇒ cot² θ = cosec² θ – 1]
⇒ tan² θ cot² θ
⇒ (tan θ cot θ)² [∵ (tan θ) (cot θ) = 1]
⇒ (1)² = 1

Question 2.
Show that   (A.P. June ’15)
(cosec θ – cot θ)² = \(\frac{1-\cos \theta}{1+\cos \theta}\) (AS₂)
Solution:
(cosec θ – cot θ)² = \(\left(\frac{1}{\sin \theta}-\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right)^2\)

Question 3.
Show that \(\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin A}{1-\sin A}}\) = sec A + tan A. (AS₂)
Solution:

Question 4.
Show that \(\frac{1-\tan ^2 A}{\cot ^2 A-1}\) = tan² A. (AS₂)
Solution:

Question 5.
Show that \(\frac{1}{\cos \theta}\) – cos θ = tan θ . sin θ (AS₂)
Solution:
L.H.S. = \(\frac{1}{\cos \theta}\) = cos θ = \(\frac{1-\cos ^2 \theta}{\cos \theta}\)
= \(\frac{\sin ^2 \theta}{\cos \theta}\)
[∵ sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 ⇒ sin²θ = 1 – cos²θ]
= \(\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\) . sin θ
= tan θ . sin θ (∵ tan θ = \(\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\))

Question 6.
Simplify: sec A (1 – sin A). (sec A + tan A). (AS₃)
Solution:
sec A (1 – sin A) = (sec A – sec A . sin A)
= (sec A – \(\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}\))
= (sec A – tan A)
∴ sec A (1 – sin A) = (sec A + tan A)
= (sec A + tan A) (sec A – tan A)
= sec² A – tan² A
= 1
[∵ 1 + tan² A = sec² A ⇒ sec² A – tan² A = 1]

Question 7.
Prove that (sin A + cosec A)² + (cos A + sec A)² = 7 + tan² A + cot² A) (AS₁, AS₂)
Solution:
L.H.S. = (sin A + cosec A)² + (cos A + sec A)²
= sin² A + cosec² A + 2 sin A. cosec A + cos² A + sec² A + 2 cos A . sec A
= (sin² A + cos² A) + cosec² A+ 2 + sec² A + 2
= 1 + cosec² A + 2 + sec² A + 2
[∵ sin² A + cos² A = 1]
= 5 + cosec² A + sec² A
= 5 + 1 + cot² A + 1 + tan² A
(∵ 1 + cot² A = cosec² A and 1 + tan² A = sec² A)
= 7 + tan² A + cot² A

Question 8.
Simplify : (T.S. Mar.’15) (AS₁, AS₃)
(1 – cos θ) (1 + cos θ) (1 + cot² θ)
Solution:
(1 – cos θ) (1 + cos θ) (1 + cot² θ)
= (1 – cos² θ) (1 + cot² θ)
[∵ (a – b) (a + b) = a² – b²]
= sin² θ (1 + cot² θ)
(∵ sin² θ + cos² θ = 1 ⇒ sin² θ = 1- cos² θ)
= sin² θ + sin² θ . cot² θ
= sin² θ + sin² θ . \(\frac{\cos ^2 \theta}{\sin ^2 \theta}\)
(∵ cot θ = \(\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\) cot²θ = \(\frac{\cos ^2 \theta}{\sin ^2 \theta}\))
= sin² θ + cos² θ
= 1

Question 9.
If sec θ + tan θ = p, then what is the value of sec θ – tan θ ? (AS₁)
Solution:
We know that 1 + tan² θ = sec2 θ
⇒ sec² θ – tan² θ = 1
⇒ (sec θ + tan θ) (sec θ – tan θ) = 1
[∵ a² – b² = (a + b) (a – b)]
⇒ p(sec θ – tan θ) = 1
⇒ sec θ – tan θ = \(\frac{1}{\mathrm{p}}\).
∴ The value of sec θ – tan θ = \(\frac{1}{\mathrm{p}}\)

Question 10.
If cosec θ + cot θ = k, then prove that cos θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{k}^2-1}{\mathrm{k}^2+1}\). (A.P. Mar.’16) (AS₁)
Solution:
Given that cosec θ – cot θ = k

Question 1.
Evaluate. (AS₄)

i) \(\frac{\tan 36}{\cot 54}\)
Solution:
Given that \(\frac{\tan 36}{\cot 54}\)
= \(\frac{\tan 36}{\cot \left(90^{\circ}-36^{\circ}\right)}\) = \(\frac{\tan 36^{\circ}}{\tan 36^{\circ}}\) = 1

ii) cos 12° – sin 78°
Solution:
Given that cos 12° – sin 78°
= cos 12° – sin (90° – 12°)
= cos 12° – cos 12°
= 0 [∵ sin (90° – θ) = cos θ]

iii) cosec 31° – sec 59°
Solution:
Given that cosec 31° – sec 59°
= cosec 31° – sec (90° – 31°) [∵ sec (90°-31°) = cosec 31°]
= cosec 31° – cosec 31°
= 0

iv) sin 15° sec 75°
Solution:
Given that sin 15° sec 75°
= sin 15° sec (90° – 15°)
= sin 15° cosec 15° [∵ sec (90° – θ) = cosec θ]
1 sin 15°
= 1

v) tan 26° tan 64°
Solution:
Given that tan 26° tan 64°
= tan 26°. tan (90° – 26°)
= tan 26° . cot 26° [∵ tan (90° – θ) = cot θ]
= tan 26° . \(\frac{1}{\tan 26^{\circ}}\)
= 1

Question 2.
Show that (AS₂)
i) tan 48° tan 16° tan 42° tan 74° = 1
Solution:
L.H.S. = tan 48° tan 16° tan 42° tan 74°
= tan 48°. tan 16°. tan (90° – 48°) . tan (90° – 16°)
= tan 48°. tan 16°. cot 48°. cot 16° [∵ tan (90 – θ) = cot θ]
= tan 48° tan 16° \(\frac{1}{\tan 48^{\circ}}\) \(\frac{1}{\tan 16^{\circ}}\) [∵ cot θ = \(\frac{1}{\tan \theta}\)]
= 1 = R.H.S.

ii) cos 36° cos 54° – sin 36° sin 54° = 0
Solution:
L.H.S. = cos 36° cos 54° – sin 36° sin 54°
= cos (90° – 54°). cos (90° – 36°) – sin 36°. sin 54°
= sin 54°. sin 36° – sin 36°. sin 54° [∵ cos (90 – θ) = sin θ]
= 0 = R.H.S.
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

Question 3.
If tan 2A = cot (A – 18°), where 2A is an acute angle. Find the value of A. (AS₁, AS₄)
Solution:
Given that, tan 2A = cot (A – 18°)
⇒ cot (90° – 2A) = cot (A – 18°) [∵ tan θ = cot (90 – θ)]
⇒ 90° – 2A = A – 18°
⇒ 108° = 3A
∴ A = \(\frac{108^{\circ}}{3}\) = 36°
Hence, the value of ‘A’ is 36°

Question 4.
If tan A = cot B where A and B are acute angles, prove that A + B = 90°. (AS₂)
Solution:
Given that tan A = cot B
⇒ cot (90° – A) = cot B
[∵ tan θ = cot (90 – θ)]
⇒ 90° – A = B
∴ A + B = 90°

Question 5.
If A, B and C are interior angles of a triangle ABC, then show that tan \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}}{2}\right)\) = cot \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{C}}{2}\right)\)
Solution:
Given A, B and C are interior angles of right angle triangle ABC then
A + B + C = 180°
On dividing the above equation by ‘2’ on both sides, we get
\(\frac{\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}}{2}\) + \(\frac{\mathrm{C}}{2}\) = \(\frac{180^{\circ}}{2}\) = 90°
\(\frac{\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}}{2}\) = 90° – \(\frac{\mathrm{C}}{2}\)
On taking ‘tan’ ratio on both sides.
tan \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}}{2}\right)\) = tan \(\left(90^{\circ}-\frac{C}{2}\right)\)
tan \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}}{2}\right)\) = cot \(\frac{\mathrm{C}}{2}\)
Hence proved.

Question 6.
Express sin 75° + cos 65° in terms of trigonometric ratios of angles between 0° and 45°. (AS₃)
Solution:
We have sin 75° + cos 65°
= sin (90° – 15°) + cos (90° – 25°)
= cos 15° + sin 25°
[∵ sin (90 – θ) = cos θ and
cos (90 – θ) = sin θ]

ii) Getting a diamond.
iii) Getting a card that is not a heart.
iv) Getting the Ace of hearts.
Solution:
All the hearts are taken out of 52 cards.
Therefore, the remaining cards will be 52 – 13 = 39
i) The probability of getting an ace from the remaining pack.
= \(\frac{\text { Number of outcomes favourable to the event }}{\text { Total number of all possible outcomes }}\)
= \(\frac{4}{52}\) = \(\frac{1}{13}\)

ii) The probability of picking out a diamond
= \(\frac{\text { Number of outcomes favourable to the event }}{\text { Total number of all possible outcomes }}\)
= \(\frac{13}{39}\) = \(\frac{1}{3}\)

iii) The probability of getting a card that is not a heart.
= \(\frac{\text { Number of outcomes favourable to the event }}{\text { Total number of all possible outcomes }}\)
= \(\frac{39}{39}\) = 1

iv) The probability of getting the Ace of hearts.
= \(\frac{\text { Number of outcomes favourable to the event }}{\text { Total number of all possible outcomes }}\)
= \(\frac{0}{39}\) = 0

Question 6.
It is given that in a group of 3 students, the probability of 2 students not having the same birthday is 0.992. What is the probability that the 2 students have the same birthday ? (AS₄)
Solution:
Probability that the 2 students have the same birthday.
= 1 – Probability that the 2 students do not have the same birthday.
= 1 – 0.992 = 0.008

Question 7.
A die is rolled once. Find the probability of getting
(i) a prime number ;
(ii) a number lying between 2 and 6 ;
(iii) an odd number. (AS₁, AS₄)
Solution:
Suppose we roll a die once. The possible out-comes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Each number has the same possibility of showing up. So the equally likely outcomes of rolling a dice are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.

i) Let E be the event of getting a prime number. Then the outcomes favourable to E are 2, 3 and 5 (prime numbers).
Therefore, the number of outcomes favourable to E is 3.
So, P(E)
= \(\frac{\text { No. of outcomes favourable to E}}{\text { No. of all possible outcomes }}\)
= \(\frac{3}{6}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)

ii) The numbers lying between 2 and 6 are 3, 4 and 5.
Let E be the event of getting a number lying between 2 and 6.
Then, the outcomes favourable to E are 3, 4 and 5.
Therefore the number of outcomes favourable to E is 3.
So, P (E)
= \(\frac{\text { No. of outcomes favourable to E}}{\text { No. of all possible outcomes }}\)
= \(\frac{3}{6}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)

iii) The odd numbers in the first 6 natural numbers is 1, 3 and 5.
Let E be the event of getting an odd number.
Then, the outcomes favourable to E are 1, 3 and 5.
Therefore, the number of outcomes favourable to E is 3.
So, P(E)
= \(\frac{\text { No. of outcomes favourable to E }}{\text { No. of all possible outcomes }}\)
= \(\frac{3}{6}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Question 8.
What is the probability of selecting out a red king from a deck of cards ?
Solution:
A deck has 52 cards.
Since the total number of cards is 52.
Number of all possible outcomes = 52
Let E be the event of getting a red king.
Then, the outcomes favourable to E are king of diamond and heart. Therefore, the number of outcomes favourable to E is 2.
So, P(E)
= \(\frac{\text { No. of outcomes favourable to E}}{\text { No. of all possible outcomes }}\)
= \(\frac{2}{52}\) = \(\frac{1}{26}\)

Question 1.
Find the mode of the following data. (AS₁) (Page No. 334)
a) 5, 6, 9, 10, 6, 12, 3, 6, 11, 10, 4, 6, 7
Solution:
Mode : 6 (Most repeated value of the data)

b) 20, 3, 7, 13, 3, 4, 6, 7, 19, 15, 7, 18, 3
Solution:
Mode : 3, 7 (Most repeated values)

c) 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6
Solution:
Mode : 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 (Most repeated values)

Question 2.
Is the mode always at the center of the data ? (AS₃) (Page No. 334)
Solution:
No, Mode may not beat the centre always.

Question 3.
Does the mode change ? If another observation is added to the data in Example ? Comment. (Page No. 334)
Solution:
The data given in example 4 is as follows :
0, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6.
Except 2 and 3, the other observations occur only once. 2 occurs three times while 3 occurs two times. Any other observation except 2 and 3 is added, the mode of the data will not be affected. If 3 is added, then 3 occurs three times. There are already three 2’s in the data. Hence, the data has two modes (i.e.,) 3 and 2. If 2 is added, then 2 occurs four times. So, the mode of the data will be 2, (i.e.,) the mode of the data is not affected because on observing the data prior to the addition of 2, we can say that the mode is 2.

Question 4.
If the maximum value of an observation in the data in example 4 is changed to 8, would the mode of the data be affected ? Comment. (Page No. 334)
Solution:
If the maximum value is altered to 8, the mode remains the same. Mode doesn’t consider the values but consider their frequencies only.

Question 1.
The following table shows the ages of the patients admitted in a hospital during a year :

Find the mode and the mean of the data given above. Compare and interpret the two measures of central tendency. (AS₃, AS₄)
Solution:
Maximum number of patients joined in the age group 35 – 45
∴ Modal class is 35 – 45.
Lower limit of the modal class ‘l’ = 35
class size, h = 10
Frequency of modal class. f₁ = 23
Frequency of the class preceding the modal class f₀ = 21
Frequency of the class succeding the modal class f₂ = 14

∴ Mode = l + \(\frac{\left(f_1-f_0\right)}{2 f_1-f_0-f_2}\) × h
= 35 + \(\left[\frac{23-21}{2 \times 23-21-14}\right]\) × 10
= 35 + \(\left[\frac{2}{46-35}\right]\) × 10
= 35 + \(\frac{2}{11}\) × 10 = 35 + 1.81818 ….
= 36.8 years

Mean \(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\) = \(\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}}\) = \(\frac{2830}{80}\) = 35.37 years.

Interpretation : Mode age is 36.8 years, Mean age = 35.37 years.
Maximum number of patients admitted in the hospital are the age 36.8 years, while on an average the age of patients admitted to the hospital is 35.37 years. Mode is less than the mean.

Question 2.
The following data gives the information on the observed life times (in hours) of 225 electrical components : (AS₄)

Determine the modal life times of the components.
Solution:

Since the maximum frequency 61 is in the class 60 – 80, this is the required modal class.
Modal class frequency, f₁ = 61
Frequency of the class preceding the modal class f₀ = 52
Frequency of the class succeding the modal class f₂ = 38
lower boundary of the modal class l = 60
Height of the class, h = 20
∴ Mode (z) = l + \(\frac{\left(f_1-f_0\right)}{2 f_1-\left(f_0+f_2\right)}\) × h
= 60 + \(\left[\frac{61-52}{2 \times 61-(52+38)}\right]\) × 20
= 60 + \(\frac{9}{122-90}\) × 20
= 60 + \(\frac{9}{32}\) × 20
= 60 + 5.625 = 65.625 hours.

Question 3.
The following data gives the distribution of total monthly household expenditure of 200 families of Gummadidala village. Find the modal monthly expenditure of the families. Also find the mean monthly expenditure. (AS₄)

Solution:

Assumed mean (a) = 3250
Σf_i = 200; Σf_iu_i = – 235
Mean monthly income = \(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\) = a + \(\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{u}_{\mathrm{i}}}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}}\) × h
= 3250 – \(\frac{235}{200}\) × 500
= 3250 – 587.5
= ₹ 2662.50
Since the maximum families 40 lies in the class 1500 – 2000, this is the required modal class.
Lower boundary of modal class (l) = 1500
Frequency of the modal class (f₁) = 40
Frequency of the class preceding the modal class f₀ = 24
Frequency of the class succeding the modal class f₂ = 33
Height of the class, h = 500
Mode (z) = l + \(\frac{\left(f_1-f_0\right)}{2 \times f_1-\left(f_0+f_2\right)}\) × h
⇒ 1500 + \(\frac{40-24}{2 \times 40-(24+33)}\) × 500
= 1500 + \(\frac{16 \times 500}{80-57}\) = 1500 + \(\frac{8000}{23}\)
⇒ 1500 + 347.826
= ₹ 1847.83
Hence, modal monthly income = ₹ 1847.83

Question 4.
The following distribution gives the state-wise, teachers, student ratio in higher second’ ary schools of India. Find the mode and mean of this data. Interpret the two measures. (AS₃, AS₄)

Solution:

Mean (\(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\)) = a + \(\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{u}_{\mathrm{i}}}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}}\) × h
a – assumed mean = 32.5; h – height of the class = 5
∴ \(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\) = 32.5 – \(\frac{22}{35}\) × 5 = 32.5 – 3.28 = 29.22
Since the maximum number of states ‘10′ lies in the class interval 30 – 35, this is the modal class.
Lower boundary of the modal class, l = 30
Frequency of the modal class, f₁ = 10
Frequency of the class preceding the modal class, f₀ = 9
Frequency of the class succeding the modal class, f₂ = 3
Height of the class h = 5
Mode (z) = l + \(\left[\frac{f_1-f_0}{\left(f_1-f_0\right)+\left(f_1-f_2\right)}\right]\) × h
⇒ 30 + \(\frac{10-9}{(10-9)+(10-3)}\) × 5
= 30 + \(\frac{1 \times 5}{1+7}\) = 30 + \(\frac{5}{8}\)
= 30 + 0625 ⇒ 30.625.
Mode of states have a teacher students ratio 30.625 and on an average of this ratio is 29.22.

Question 5.
The given distribution shows the number of runs scored by some top batsmen of the world in one international cricket matches.

Find the mode of the data. (AS₄)
Solution:

Maximum no.of batsmen are in the class 4000 – 5000
Modal class is 4000 – 5000
Lower boundary of the modal class ‘l’ = 4000
frequency of the modal class, f₁ = 18
frequency of the class preceding the modal class f₀ = 4
frequency of the class succeeding the modal class f₂ = 9
Size of the class, h = 1000
Mode(z) = l + \(\left[\frac{\mathrm{f}_1-\mathrm{f}_0}{\left(\mathrm{f}_1-\mathrm{f}_0\right)+\left(\mathrm{f}_1-\mathrm{f}_2\right)}\right]\) × h
Mode (z) = 4000 + \(\frac{18-4}{(18-4)+(18-9)}\) × 1000
= 4000 + \(\frac{14}{14+9}\) × 1000
= 4000 + \(\frac{14000}{23}\) = 4000 + 608.695
= 4608.69
≅ 4608.7 runs

Question 6.
A student noted the number of cars passing through a spot on a road for 100 periods, each of 3 minutes and summarised this in the table given below.

Find the mode of the data. (AS₄)
Solution:

Since, the maximum frequency is 20, the modal class is 40 – 50.
Lower boundary of the modal class, ‘l’ = 40
Frequency of the modal class, f₁ = 20
Frequency of the class preceding the modal class f₀ = 12
Frequency of the class succeeding the modal class f₂ = 11
Height of the class, h = 10;
Mode (z) = l + \(\left[\frac{\mathrm{f}_1-\mathrm{f}_0}{\left(\mathrm{f}_1-\mathrm{f}_0\right)+\left(\mathrm{f}_1-\mathrm{f}_2\right)}\right]\) × h
= 40 + \(\frac{(20-12)}{(20-12)+(20-11)}\) × 10
= 40 + \(\frac{8}{8+9}\) × 10
= 40 + \(\frac{80}{17}\)
= 40 + 4.70588
= 44.705
≅ 44.7 cars.

Question 1.
The following distribution gives the daily income of 50 workers of a factory.

Convert the distribution above to a less than type cumulative frequency distribution and draw its ogive. (AS₅)
Solution:
For less than ogive, we take the upper class limits on X-axis and their corresponding cumulative frequencies on Y – axis, choosing a convenient scale.

The points to be plotted are (300, 12) (350, 26) (400, 34) (450, 40) and (500, 50)
Scale :
On X-axis : 1 cm = 50 units
On Y-axis : 1 cm = 5 units

Question 2.
During the medical check-up of 35 students of a class, their weights were recorded as follows : (AS₅)

Draw a less than type ogive for the given data. Hence obtain the median weight from the graph and verify the result by using the formula.
Solution:
The points to be plotted on a graph paper are : (38, 0), (40, 3), (42, 5), (44, 9), (46, 14), (48, 28), (50, 32), (52, 35)
Scale :
On X-axis : 1 cm = 2 units
On Y-axis : 1 cm = 2 units

Number of observations = 35
Here \(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\) = \(\frac{35}{2}\) = 17.5
Locate the point 17.5 on the Y – axis. From the point, draw a line parallel to the X – axis cutting the curve at a point. From the point, draw a perpendicular to the X – axis.

The point of intersection of this perpendicular with the X – axis determines the median of the given data as 46.8 kg.

Number of observations = n = 35
\(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\) = \(\frac{35}{2}\) = 17.5
17.5 belongs to the class 46 – 48
∴ Median class = 46 – 48
l – lower boundary of class = 46
f – frequency of the median class = 14
c.f. = 14
Class size = 2
Median = l + \(\frac{\left(\frac{n}{2}-c . f .\right)}{f}\) × h
= 46 + \(\frac{17.5-14}{14}\) × 2
= 46 + \(\frac{3.5}{14}\) × 2
= 46 + \(\frac{7}{14}\) = 46 + \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 46.5
Hence, median is 46.5 either ways.

Question 3.
The following table gives production yield per hectare of wheat of 100 farms of a village. (AS₅)

(50, 100), (55, 98), (60, 90), (65. 78), (70, 54) and (75, 16)
Scale:
On X-axis: 1 cm = 5 units
On Y-axis: 1 cm = 10 units

TS 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics 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. (AS₄)

Median :
Solution:

Here n = 68; \(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\) = \(\frac{68}{2}\) = 34
The median lies in the class 125 – 145.
Lower limit (l) of the median class = 125
Frequency of the median class (f) = 20 of (cumulative frequency of the class 105 – 125) = 22
class size (h) = 20
∴ Median = l + \(\frac{\left[\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}-\mathrm{c.f}\right]}{\mathrm{f}}\) × h
= 125 + \(\frac{\left[\frac{n}{2}-c f\right]}{f}\) × 20
= 125 + 12
= 137 units.

Mean :

Mean (\(\overline{\mathrm{X}}\)) = a + \(\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{u}_{\mathrm{i}}}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}}\) × h
Here a = 135, h = 20, Σf_i = 68, Σf_iu_i = 7
= 135 + \(\left[\frac{7}{68}\right]\) × 20
= 135 + \(\frac{35}{17}\)
= 135 + 2.05
= 137.05

Mode :
Since the maximum number of consumers have their monthly consumption (in units) in the interval 125 – 145
∴ lower limit of the modal class (l) = 125
class size (h) = 20
Frequency of the modal class (f₁) = 20
Frequency of the class preceding the modal class (f₀) = 13
Frequency of the class succeeding the modal class (f₂) = 14
Modal = l + \(\frac{\left(f_1-f_0\right)}{\left(2 f_1-f_0-f_2\right)}\) × h
= 125 + \(\frac{(20-13)}{(2 \times 20-13-14)}\) × 20
= 125 + \(\frac{7}{(40-13-14)}\) × 20
= 125 + \(\frac{7 \times 20}{13}\) = 125 + \(\frac{140}{13}\)
= 125 + 10.76 = 135.76 units

Comparison :
In this case, the three measures i.e., mean, median and mode are approximately equal.

Question 2.
If the median of 60 observations, give below is 28.5, find the value of x and y. (AS₁)

Solution:

Hence, n = 60 (given)
\(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\) = \(\frac{60}{2}\) = 30
⇒ 45 + x + y = 60
⇒ x + y = 60 – 45 = 15 ……………… (1)
The median is given as 28.5.
If lies in the class 20 – 30.
So, l = 20;
Frequency of the median class (f) = 20
cf (cumulative frequency of the class preceding the median class 10 – 20) = 5 + x
∴ Median = l + \(\frac{\left[\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}-\mathrm{c.f}\right]}{\mathrm{f}}\) × h
⇒ 28.5 = 20 + \(\left[\frac{30-(5+x)}{20} \times 10\right]\)
⇒ 28.5 = 20 + \(\frac{25-x}{2}\)
⇒ \(\frac{25-x}{2}\) = 28.5 – 20 = 8.5
⇒ 25 – x = 2 × 8.5
⇒ 25 – x = 17
⇒ x = 25 – 17 = 8 ……………… (2)
from (1) and (2) : we get
8 in x + y = 15, 8 + y = 15
∴ y = 15 – 8 = 7
Hence, x = 8 and y = 7

Question 3.
A life insurance agent found the following data about distribution of ages of 100 policy holders. Calculate the median age. (policies are given only to persons having age 18 years onwards but less than 60 years.) (AS₄)

We find the class intervals and their corresponding frequencies to calculate the median age.
Solution:

Hence, n = 100: \(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\) = \(\frac{100}{2}\) = 50
The median lies in the class 35 – 40. So l = 35
frequency of the median class (f) = 33
cf (cumulative frequency of the class preceeding the median dass 30 – 35) = 45
class size(h) = 5
∴ Median = l + \(\frac{\left[\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}-\mathrm{c.f}\right]}{\mathrm{f}}\) × h
= 35 + \(\frac{(50-45)}{33}\) × 5
= 35 + \(\frac{5 \times 5}{33}\) = 35 + \(\frac{25}{33}\)
= 35 + 0.76 = 35.76
Hence, the median age = 35.76 years.

Question 4.
The lengths of 40 leaves of a plant are measured correct to the nearest millimetre and the data obtained Is represented in the following table: (AS₄)

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)
Solution:

Here, n = 40; \(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\) = \(\frac{40}{2}\) = 20
The median class is 144.5 – 153.5
Lower limit (l) of the median class = 144.5
cf (cumulative frequency of class preceding the median class 144.5 – 153.5) = 17
f (frequency of the median class) = 12
h (class size) = 9
using the formula, median
= l + \(\frac{\left[\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}-\mathrm{c.f}\right]}{\mathrm{f}}\) × h
= 144.5 + \(\frac{(20-17) \times 9}{12}\) × 9
= 144.5 + \(\frac{3 \times 9}{12}\) = 144.5 + \(\frac{9}{4}\)
= 144.5 + 2.25
= 146.75
∴ Median length = 146.75 mm.

Question 5.
The following table gives the distribution of the life-time of 400 neon lamps

Find the median life time of a lamp. (AS₄)
Solution:

Here, n = 400; \(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\) = \(\frac{400}{2}\) = 200
The median class is 3000 – 3500
lower limit (1) of the median class = 3000
cf (cumulative frequency of the class preceding the median class 2500 – 3000) = 130
f (frequency of the median class) = 86
h(class size) = 500
using the formula, Median = l + \(\frac{\left[\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}-\mathrm{c.f}\right]}{\mathrm{f}}\) × h
= 3000 + \(\frac{(200-130) \times 500}{86}\)
= 3000 + \(\frac{70 \times 500}{86}\)
= 3000 + 406.98
= 3406.98 hours
∴ Median life = 3406.98 hours.

Question 6.
loo surnames were randomly picked up from a local telephone directory and the frequency distribution of the number of letters ¡n the English alphabet in the surnames was obtained as follows:

Determine the median number of letters In the surnames. Find the mean number of letters in the surnames P Also, find the modal size of the surnames. (AS₄)
Solution:
Median:

Here, n = 100; \(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\) = \(\frac{100}{2}\) = 50
So, the median lies in the class 7 – 10
lower limit (1) of the median class = 7
cf (cumulative frequency of the class preceding median class 7 – 10) = 36
f (frequency of the median class) = 40
h (class size) = 3
using the formula. Median
= l + \(\frac{\left[\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}-\mathrm{c.f}\right]}{\mathrm{f}}\) × h × h
= 7 + \(\frac{(50-36) \times 3}{40}\)
= 7 + \(\frac{14 \times 3}{40}\) = 7 + \(\frac{21}{20}\)
= 7 + 1.05 = 8.05
Hence, the median of letters in the surnames = 8.05

Mean :

Mean (\(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\)) = a + \(\left[\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{u}_{\mathrm{i}}}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}} \times \mathrm{h}\right]\)
Here a = 8.5, h = 3, Σf_i = 100, Σf_iu_i = -6
= 8.5 – \(\frac{6 \times 3}{100}\)
= 8.5 – \(\frac{18}{100}\)
= 8.5 – 0.18
= 8.32
Hence, the mean of the surnames = 8.32

Mode:

Since, the maximum number of surnames have number of letters in the interval 7 – 10, the modal class is 7 – 10
Lower limit (1) of the modal class = 7
frequency of the modal class (f₁) = 40
Frequency of the class preceding the modal class (f₀) = 30
frequency of the class succeeding the modal class (f₂) = 16
class size(h) = 3
∴ Mode = l + \(\left[\frac{\mathrm{f}_1-\mathrm{f}_0}{2 \mathrm{f}_1-\mathrm{f}_0-\mathrm{f}_2}\right]\) × h
= 7 + \(\frac{(40-30)}{(2 \times 40-30-16)}\) × 3
= 7 + \(\left[\frac{10 \times 3}{80-30-16}\right]\)
= 7 + \(\frac{30}{34}\)
= 7 + \(\frac{15}{17}\)
= 7 + 0.88 = 7.88
Hence, the modal size of the surnames = 7.88

Question 7.
The distribution below gives the weights of 30 students of a class. Find the median weight of the students. (AS₄) (Mar ’16 (A.P))

Solution:

Hence, n = 30; \(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\) = \(\frac{30}{2}\) = 15
So, the median lies in the class 55 – 60
∴ l = 55
frequency of the median class (f) = 6
cf (cumulative frequency, of the class 50 – 55) = 13
class size (h) = 5
∴ Median = l + \(\frac{\left[\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}-\mathrm{c.f}\right]}{\mathrm{f}}\) × h
= 55 + \(\frac{(15-13) \times 5}{6}\)
= 55 + \(\frac{2 \times 5}{6}\)
= 55 + \(\frac{5}{3}\) = 55 + 1.67
= 56.67
Hence, the median weight of the students = 56.67 kgs.

Question 1.
A survey was conducted by a group of students as a part of their environment awareness programme, 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.

Solution:

∴ \(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\) = \(\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}}\) = \(\frac{162}{20}\) = 8.1
!! Since f_i and x_i are of small values we use direct method.

Question 2.
Consider the following distribution of daily wages of 50 workers of a factory. (AS₄)

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

Here, the x_i are of large numerical values in 250 – 300. So, a = 275.
So we use Assumed Mean method then,
\(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\) = a + \(\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{d}_{\mathrm{i}}}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}}\)
Here, the Assumed mean is taken as 275.
∴ \(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\) = a + \(\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{d}_{\mathrm{i}}}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}}\) = 275 + \(\frac{1900}{50}\) = 275 + 38 = 313

Question 3.

\(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\) = 18 (given)
⇒ 18 = \(\frac{752+20 f}{(44+f)}\)
⇒ 18(44 + f) = 752 + 20f ⇒ 20f – 18f = 792 – 752
⇒ 2f = 40
∴ f = \(\frac{40}{2}\) = 20

Here, we use step division method where a = 22, h = 5
\(\overline{\mathrm{x}}\) = a + \(\left[\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{u}_{\mathrm{i}}}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}}\right]\) × h
⇒ 22 + \(\frac{25}{400}\) × 5
⇒ 22 + 0.31 = 22.31
