The distribution X and Y with total number of observations 36 and 64, and mean 4 and 3 respectively are combined. What is the mean of the resulting distribution X + Y?
उत्तर
According to the question,
4 =`X/36 and 3 = Y/64`
⟹ 𝑋 = 4×36 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑌 = 3×64
⟹ 𝑋 = 144 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑌 = 192
𝑁𝑜𝑤, 𝑋 + 𝑌 = 144 + 192 = 336
And total number of observations = 36 + 64 = 100
Thus, mean =`336/100= 3.36.`

The observation 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x+2, 72, 78, 84, 95 are arranged in ascending order. What is the value of x if the median of the data is 63?
The median of 19 observations is 30. Two more observation are made and the values of these are 8 and 32. Find the median of the 21 observations taken together.
Hint Since 8 is less than 30 and 32 is more than 30, so the value of median (middle value) remains unchanged.
If the median of `x/5,x/4,x/2,x and x/3`, where x > 0, is 8, find the value of x.
Hint Arranging the observations in ascending order, we have `x/5,x/4,x/3,x/2,x Median= x/3=8.`
