After an examination, a teacher wants to know the marks obtained by maximum number of the students in her class. She requires to calculate ______ of marks.
Let 'a' be the assumed mean and 'h' be the class size for a grouped data. Which of the following is not the correct formula to find the mean of the grouped data ?
(a)$\bar{x} = \frac{\Sigma f_i x_i}{\Sigma f_i}$
(b)$\bar{x} = a + \frac{\Sigma f_i d_i}{\Sigma f_i}$, where $d_i = x_i - a$
(c)$\bar{x} = a + \frac{\Sigma f_i u_i}{\Sigma f_i}$, where $u_i = \frac{x_i - a}{h}$
(d)$\bar{x} = a + \frac{\Sigma f_i y_i}{\Sigma f_i} \times h$, where $y_i = \frac{x_i - a}{h}$

Find the mean and the median for the following frequency distribution : Class $11-13$ $13-15$ $15-17$ $17-19$ $19-21$ $21-23$ $23-25$ Frequency $7$ $6$ $9$ $13$ $20$ $5$ $4$
Show SolutionHide Solution↓
Calculation of Mean: $\sum f_i = 64$ $\sum f_i x_i = 1152$ Mean $= \frac{\sum f_i x_i}{\sum f_i} = \frac{1152}{64} = 18$. Calculation of Median: $N = 64 \Rightarrow \frac{N}{2} = 32$. The median class is $17-19$ (since cumulative frequency $22 < 32 < 35$). Lower limit of median class $l = 17$. Cumulative frequency of class preceding median class $cf = 22$. Frequency of median class $f = 13$. Class size $h = 2$. Median $= l + (\frac{\frac{N}{2} - cf}{f}) \times h$ Median $= 17 + (\frac{32 - 22}{13}) \times 2$ Median $= 17 + (\frac{10}{13}) \times 2 = 17 + \frac{20}{13}$ Median $= 17 + 1.538 \approx 18.54$.
Activities like running or cycling reduce stress and the risk of mental disorders like depression. Running helps build endurance. Children develop stronger bones and muscles and are less prone to gain weight. The physical education teacher of a school has decided to conduct an inter school running tournament in his school premises.

Let the fraction be $\frac{x}{x+2}$ Therefore, $\frac{x}{x+2} + \frac{x+2}{x+4} = \frac{46}{35}$ $\Rightarrow 24x^2 + 4x - 228 = 0$ or $6x^2 + x - 57 = 0$ $\Rightarrow (6x + 19)(x - 3) = 0$ $x \neq -\frac{19}{6}$ $\therefore x = 3$ So, the required fraction is $\frac{3}{5}$
