33. The mean and standard deviation of marks obtained by 50 students of a class in three subjects, Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry are given below:

Subject                                                        Mathematics           Physics                Chemistry

Mean                                                             42                            32                         40.9

Standard                                                       12                           15                          20

deviation

Which of the three subjects shows the highest variability in marks and which shows the lowest?

    33. C.V in mathematics = 1242×100=28.57.

    C.V in Physics = 1532×100=46.87.

    C.V in chemistry = 2040.9×100=48.89

      Chemistry has the highest variability and mathematics has the lowest variability.

N = f = 2 7

( N 2 ) = 2 7 2 = 1 3 . 5

So, we have median lies in the class 12 – 16

I1 = 12, f = 8, h = 4, c.f. = 13

So, here we apply formula

M = I 1 + N 2 c . f . f × h = 1 2 + 1 3 . 5 1 3 8 × 4

= 1 2 + 5 2

M = 2 4 . 5 2 = 1 2 . 2 5

20 M = 20 × 12.25

= 245

  a + b + 6 8 + 4 4 + 4 0 + 6 0 6 = 5 5

212 + a + b = 330

a + b = 118

x i 2 n ( x ¯ ) 2 = 1 9 4          

a 2 + b 2 + ( 6 8 ) 2 + ( 4 4 ) 2 + ( 4 0 ) 2 + ( 6 0 ) 2 6 = ( 5 5 ) 2 = 1 9 4

= 3219

11760 + a2 + b2 = 19314

a2 + b2 = 19314 – 11760

= 7554

(a + b)2 –2ab = 7554

From here b = 41.795

a + b = 118

a + b + 2b = 118 + 83.59

= 201.59

Kindly go throuigh the solution

Given   i = 1 1 8 ( x i α ) = 3 6 i . e i = 1 1 8 x i 1 8 α = 3 6 . . . . . . . . . . ( i )

&       i = 1 1 8 ( x i β ) 2 = 9 0 i . e i = 1 1 8 x i 2 2 β x i + 1 8 β 2 = 9 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . ( i i )      

(i) & (ii)   i = 1 1 8 x i 2 = 9 0 1 8 β + 3 6 β ( α + 2 ) . . . . . . . . . . . . . ( i i i )

Now variance σ 2 = x i 2 n ( x i n ) 2 = 1 given

->(a - b) (a - b + 4) = 0

Since α β s o | α β | = 4

M e a n = 3 + 1 2 + 7 + a + ( 4 3 a ) 5 = 1 3  

Variance = 3 2 + 1 2 2 + 7 2 + a 2 + ( 4 3 a ) 2 5 ( 1 3 ) 2  

2 a 2 a + 1 5 N a t u r a l n u m b e r      

Let 2a2 – a + 1 = 5x

D = 1 – 4 (2) (1 – 5n)

= 40n – 7, which is not 4 λ o r 4 λ + 1 f r o m .  

As each square form is 4 λ o r 4 λ + 1
