Find the following table gives the distribution of the life time of 400 neon lamps:
Life time (in hours) | Number of lamps |
1500 – 2000 | 14 |
2000 – 2500 | 56 |
2500 – 3000 | 60 |
3000 – 3500 | 86 |
3500 – 4000 | 74 |
4000 – 4500 | 62 |
4500 – 5000 | 48 |
Find the median life time of a lamp.
उत्तर
The cumulative frequencies with their respective class intervals are as follows.
Life time | Number of lamps (fi) |
Cumulative frequency |
1500 − 2000 | 14 | 14 |
2000 − 2500 | 56 | 14 + 56 = 70 |
3000 − 3500 | 60 | 70 + 60 = 130 |
3000 − 3500 | 86 | 130 + 86 = 216 |
3500 − 4000 | 74 | 216 + 74 = 290 |
4000 − 4500 | 62 | 290 + 62 = 352 |
4500 − 5000 | 48 | 352 + 48 = 400 |
Total (n) | 400 |
It can be observed that the cumulative frequency just greater than `n/2 (i.e 400/2 = 200)` is 216
belonging to class interval 3000 − 3500.
Median class = 3000 − 3500
Lower limit (l) of median class = 3000
Frequency (f) of median class = 86
Cumulative frequency (cf) of class preceding median class = 130
Class size (h) = 500
Median = `l +((n/2 -cf)/f)xxh`
= `3000+ ((200-130)/86)xx500`
= `3000+(70xx500)/86`
= 3406.976
Therefore, the median life time of lamps is 3406.98 hours.

Read the following passage and answer the questions given below.
Electric buses are becoming popular nowadays. These buses have the electricity stored in a battery. Electric buses have a range of approximately 280 km with just charge.
