प्रश्न

The following is the distribution of height of students of a certain class in a certain city:

Height (in cm): 160 - 162 163 - 165 166 - 168 169 - 171 172 - 174
No. of students: 15 118 142 127 18

Find the average height of maximum number of students.

उत्तर

Height(exclusive) Height(inclusive) No. of students
160 - 162 159.5-162.5 15
163 - 165 162.5-165.5 118
166 - 168 165.5-168.5 142
169 - 171 168.5-171-.5 127
172 - 174 171.5-174.5 18

Here the maximum frequency is 142, then the corresponding class 165.5 – 168.5 is modal class

L = 165.5, h = 168.5 – 165.5 = 3, f = 142, f1 = 118, f2 = 127

Mode `rArr=l+(f-f1)/(2f-f1-f2)xxh`

`=165.5+(142-118)/(2xx142-118-127)xx3`

`=165.5+(24xx3)/39`

`= 165.5 + 72/39`

= 165.5 + 1.85

= 167.35 cm

The following frequency distribution table shows the classification of the number of vehicles and the volume of petrol filled in them. To find the mode of the volume of petrol filled, complete the following activity:

Class
(Petrol filled in Liters)
Frequency
(Number of Vehicles)
0.5 - 3.5 33
3.5 - 6.5 40
6.5 - 9.5 27
9.5 - 12.5 18
12.5 - 15.5 12

Activity:

From the given table,

Modal class = `square`

∴ Mode = `square + [(f_1 - f_0)/(2f_1 -f_0 - square)] xx h`

∴ Mode = `3.5 + [(40 - 33)/(2(40) - 33 - 27)] xx square`

∴ Mode = `3.5 +[7/(80 - 60)] xx 3`

∴ Mode = `square`

∴ The mode of the volume of petrol filled is `square`.
