Variance =
α2 + β2 = 897.7 × 8
= 7181.6
xi | fi | c.f. |
0 – 4 4 – 8 8 – 12 12 – 16 16 – 20 | 2 4 7 8 6 | 2 6 13 21 27 |
So, we have median lies in the class 12 – 16
I1 = 12, f = 8, h = 4, c.f. = 13
So, here we apply formula
20 M = 20 × 12.25
= 245
212 + a + b = 330
⇒ a + b = 118
= 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
