Sol :

A.T.Q

Mean of 5 test is 80

Four test marks 73, 86, 78 and 75 and let the fifth test marks be x

∴$\dfrac{73+86+78+75+x}{5}=80$

312+x=80×5

x=400-312=88

Question 8

The mean of 5 numbers is 20. if one number is excluded, mean of the remaining numbers becomes 23.Find the excluded number.

Sol :

Let the excluded number be x (5th number)

A.T.Q

Mean of 4 number is 23, which is equal to 

$\dfrac{\text{Sum of 4 numbers}}{4}=23$

Sum of 4 numbers =23×4

Sum of 4 numbers =92...(i)


Mean of 5 numbers is 20, which is equal to 

$\dfrac{\text{Sum of 4 numbers + 5th number }}{5}=20$

Sum of 4 numbers + x=20×5

Sum of 4 numbers + x=100

92+x=100 (From above)

x=100-92=8

Question 9

Find the mean of the following distributions
(i)

x 4 6 9 10 15
f 5 10 10 7 8
Sol :
x f f.x
4 5 20
6 10 60
9 10 90
10 7 70
15 8 120

𝝨f=40 𝝨f.x=360

$\overline{x}=\dfrac{\sum fx}{\sum f}=\frac{360}{40}$
=9

(ii)

x 10 30 50 70 89
f 7 8 10 15 10
Sol :
x f f.x
10 7 70
30 8 240
50 10 500
70 15 1050
89 10 890

𝝨f=50 𝝨f.x=2750

$\overline{x}=\dfrac{\sum fx}{\sum f}=\frac{2750}{50}$

=55

Question 10

The following table gives the height in cm and the number of plants of each height. Compute the mean height of the plants.

Height in cm (x) 50 53 61 64 67 70
Number of plants (f) 15 10 18 12 25 20
Sol :
Sol :
x f f.x
50 15 750
53 10 530
61 18 1098
64 12 768
67 25 1675
70 20 1400

𝝨f=100 𝝨f.x=6221

$\overline{x}=\dfrac{\sum fx}{\sum f}=\frac{6221}{100}$

=62.21 cm
