Question

Find mean, variance and S.D. of the following data:

Classes 10 – 20 20 – 30 30 – 40 40 – 50 50 – 60 60 – 70 70  –  80 80 – 90 90 – 100
Frequency 7 14 6 13 9 15 11 10 15
Sum

Solution

We prepare the following table to compute mean, variance, and S.D.:

C.I. Mid value
(xi)
fi

ui = `(x_"i" - "A")/"h"`

A = 55
h = 10

fiui fiui2 = fiui x ui
10 – 20 15 7 – 4 – 28 112
20 – 30 25 14 – 3 – 42 126
30 – 40 35 6 – 2 – 12 24
40 – 50 45 13 – 1 – 13 13
50 – 60 55 9 0 0 0
60 – 70 65 15 1 15 15
70 – 80 75 11 2 22 44
80 – 90 85 10 3 30 90
90 – 100 95 15 4 60 240
    `sumf_"i"` = 100   `sumf_"i"u_"i"` = 32 `sumf_"i"u_"i"^2` = 664 

From the table, `sumf_"i"u_"i" = 32, sumf_"i" = 100, sumf_"i"u_"i"^2 = 644`

∴ `bar(u) = (sumf_"i"u_"i")/(sumf_"i")`

`bar(u) = 32/100`

`bar(u)` = 0.32

∴ `bar(x) = "A" + "h"bar(u)`

= 55 + 10(0.32)

= 58.2

`sigma_u^2 = (sumf_"i"u_"i"^2)/(sumf_"i") - (baru)^2`

`= 644/100 - (0.32)^2`

= 6.64 – 0.1024

= 6.5376

Var(x) = `sigma_x^2`

`= "h"^2sigma_u^2`

= 100 × 6.5376

= 653.76

S.D. = `sigma_x`

`= sqrt(653.76)`

= 25.56

Hence, mean = 58.2, variance 653.76, S.D. = 25.56
