Class Test 9 ST Solution

This document contains the solutions to test questions on statistics. 1. The first question involves calculating the correct mean after one observation was misread. The correct mean is found to be 11.25. 2. The second question asks to find the value of x if the mean of five observations is 11. The value of x is found to be 20. 3. The last question provides data on mango weights and asks to construct a grouped frequency table and histogram. The table has 7 class intervals of 20g each from 60-80g to 200-220g.

Statistics – IX Class Test 01 | Solution Sheet

Short Answer Type: 2 Marks Each


1. Mean of 36 observations is 12. One observation 47 was misread as 74. Find the correct
mean.
Solution:
Mean of 36 observations = 12
Total of 36 observations = 36 × 12 = 432
Correct sum of 36 observations = 432 – 74 + 47 = 405
405
Correct mean of 36 observations = = 11.25
36

2. If the mean of five observations x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6, x + 8 is 11, then write the value of x.


Answer.
Solution

3. Write the class mark of an interval 90 – 120.


Sol: Class mark = (90+120 )/ 2 = 210 / 2 =105

4. Find the range of the given data : 25, 18, 20, 22, 16, 6, 17, 15, 12, 30, 32, 10, 19, 8, 11, 20
Sol: Here, the minimum and maximum values of given data are 6 and 32 respectively.
Range = 32 – 6 = 26

5. There are 50 numbers. Each number is subtracted from 53 and the mean of the numbers
so obtained is found to be – 3.5. Find the mean of the given numbers.

6. If the median of data (arranged in ascending order) 31, 33, 35, x, x+10, 48, 48, 50 is 40,
then find value of x.

7. The median of the data 26, 56, 32, 33, 60, 17, 34, 29, 45 is 33. If 26 is replaced by 62, then
find the new median.
Here, the given data in ascending order is 17, 29, 32, 33, 34, 45, 56, 60, 62

Hence, new median is 34.

8. The scores of an English test (out of 100) of 20 students are given below:
75, 69, 88, 55, 95, 88, 73, 64, 75, 98, 88, 95, 90, 95, 88, 44, 59, 67, 88, 99. Find the
median and mode of the data.
The scores of an English test (out of 100) in ascending order are
44, 55, 59, 64, 67, 69, 73, 75, 75, 88, 88, 88, 88, 88, 90, 95, 95, 95, 98, 99
Here, n = 20

= Mean of 10th and 11th term Median


= Mean of 88 and 88 = 88
Mode = 88 [∵ 88 occurred max. no. of times i.e., 5 times]

9. There are 50 numbers. Each number is subtracted from 53 and the mean of the
numbers so obtained is found to be – 3.5. Find the mean of the given numbers.
Let x be the mean of 50 numbers.
i. Sum of 50 numbers = 50x
Since each number is subtracted from 53.
According to question, we have

10. The points scored by a basketball team in a series of matches are as follows:
17, 2, 7, 27, 25, 5, 14, 18, 10. Find the median.
Here, points scored in ascending order are 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 17, 18, 25, 27, we have n = 9 terms

Question 1.
For a particular year, following is the distribution of ages (in years) of primary school
teachers in a district :

(i) Write the lower limit of first class interval.


(ii) Determine the class limits of the fourth class interval.
(iii) Find the class mark of the class 45 – 50.
(iv) Determine the class size.
Solution:
(i) First class interval is 15 – 20 and its lower limit is 15.
(ii) Fourth class interval is 30 – 35
Lower limit is 30 and upper limit is 35.
(iii) Class mark of the class 45 – 50 = (45+50)/2 = 95/2 = 47.5
(iv) Class size = Upper limit of each class interval – Lower limit of each class interval
∴ Here, class size = 20 – 15 = 5

Question 4: The weight in grams of 35 mangoes picked at random from a consignment are
as follows:
131, 113, 82, 75, 204, 81, 84, 118, 104, 110, 80, 107, 111, 141, 136, 123, 90, 78, 90, 115, 110,
98, 106, 99, 107, 84, 76, 186, 82, 100, 109, 128, 115, 107, 115 From the grouped frequency
table by dividing the variable range into interval of equal width of 20 grams, such that the
mid-value of the first class interval is 70 g. Also, draw a histogram.

Solution: It is given that the size of each class interval = 20 and the mid-value of the first
class interval is 70.
Let the lower limit of the first class interval be a, then its upper limit = a + 20.
{a+(a+20)}/2 = 70
⇒ a = 70 – 10 = 60
Thus, the first class interval is 60 – 80 and the other class-intervals are 80 – 100, 100 – 120,
120 – 140, 140 – 160, 160 – 180, 180 – 200 and 200 – 220.
So, the grouped frequency table is as under :
