📝 Question:

In-Text Questions on Table 5 (Page 295) Question: Look at the frequency table given below. The heights of a group of people is recorded in inclusive classes: Table 5: Class Interval (Height in Centimetre) | Frequency 141-150 | 9 151-160 | 11 161-170 | 15 171-180 | 10 Total | 45 Now discuss the following questions with your friends: 1. How many classes are there in this frequency table? 2. Which group has 180 as its upper limit? 3. What are the lower and upper limits of the class 151 to 160? 4. Which class has the highest frequency? 5. What is the frequency of the first class? 6. What is the meaning of the statement that the class 171 to 180 has a frequency 10? 7. Are these classes inclusive? Yes or no, give reason for your choice? : 5: | 141-150 | 9 151-160 | 11 161-170 | 15 171-180 | 10 | 45 : 1. ? 2. 180 ? 3. 151 160 ? 4. ? 5. ? 6. 171 180 10 ? 7. ? , ?

💡 Solution:

  1. There are 4 classes in this frequency table (141-150, 151-160, 161-170, 171-180).
  2. The class interval 171-180 has 180 as its upper limit.
  3. For the class 151 to 160: Lower limit = 151, Upper limit = 160.
  4. The class 161-170 has the highest frequency (frequency = 15).
  5. The frequency of the first class (141-150) is 9.
  6. It means that there are 10 people whose heights are between 171 cm and 180 cm (including both 171 cm and 180 cm).
  7. Yes, these classes are inclusive because the upper limit of one class is not equal to the lower limit of the next class (e.g., upper limit 150 of 1st class ≠ lower limit 151 of 2nd class), and both upper and lower limits are included in the same class.

Question

Change the inclusive classes of Table 5 to…


📝 Question:

Change the inclusive classes of Table 5 to exclusive classes and add two people with heights 150.5 cm and 160.5 cm to the data. 5 150.5 cm 160.5 cm

💡 Solution:

Adjustment Factor Calculation

Difference between lower limit of second class (151) and upper limit of first class (150) = 151 – 150 = 1.

Adjustment factor = 1 / 2 = 0.5.

Subtract 0.5 from each lower limit and add 0.5 to each upper limit.

Exclusive Classes Table before adding new data

  • 140.5 – 150.5 (Frequency = 9)
  • 150.5 – 160.5 (Frequency = 11)
  • 160.5 – 170.5 (Frequency = 15)
  • 170.5 – 180.5 (Frequency = 10)

Adding the two persons in exclusive classes

  • Person with height 150.5 cm goes into class 150.5 – 160.5 (as lower limit value is included in exclusive class). Frequency increases from 11 to 12.
  • Person with height 160.5 cm goes into class 160.5 – 170.5. Frequency increases from 15 to 16.

Updated Exclusive Frequency Table

  • 140.5 – 150.5 : 9
  • 150.5 – 160.5 : 12
  • 160.5 – 170.5 : 16
  • 170.5 – 180.5 : 10

Total Frequency = 9 + 12 + 16 + 10 = 47.

Question

The areas of the frequency polygon and of…


📝 Question:

The areas of the frequency polygon and of the histogram are the same, Why? (Hint: Use the property of congruency of triangles) , ?

💡 Solution:

Explanation

  1. When a frequency polygon is constructed over a histogram, the line segments of the polygon cut off triangular regions from the rectangles of the histogram.
  2. For every class rectangle, the triangular area included inside the polygon but outside the rectangle is congruent to the triangular area included inside the rectangle but excluded from the polygon.
  3. By SAS or ASA congruency criteria, these corresponding small right-angled triangles are congruent and thus equal in area.
  4. Hence, the total area added outside the histogram rectangles equals the total area removed from inside the histogram rectangles.
  5. Therefore, the total area enclosed by the frequency polygon is strictly equal to the total area of the histogram.

Question 1

Explain the following Class interval size of a…


📝 Question:

Explain the following: Class interval, size of a class, class mark, class frequency, class limits : , , , ,

💡 Solution:

  1. Class interval: When a large set of numerical data is divided into small suitable groups, each group is called a class interval (e.g., 10-20, 20-30).
  2. Size of a class (Class width): The difference between the upper class limit and lower class limit of a class (or difference between two consecutive class marks) is called the class size. Formula: Class Size = Upper Limit – Lower Limit.
  3. Class mark: The middle point of a class interval is called its class mark. Formula: Class Mark = (Lower Limit + Upper Limit) / 2.
  4. Class frequency: The number of observations that fall within a particular class interval is called the class frequency.
  5. Class limits: The two extreme values that specify a class interval are called class limits. The smaller value is the Lower Class Limit and the larger value is the Upper Class Limit.

Question 2

Give the difference between inclusive and exclusive classes


📝 Question:

Give the difference between inclusive and exclusive classes

💡 Solution:

  1. Inclusive Classes:
  • The upper limit of one class is not equal to the lower limit of the next class (e.g., 1-10, 11-20).
  • Both lower and upper limits are included in the same class.
  • Suitable for discrete data (like whole numbers).
  1. Exclusive Classes:
  • The upper limit of one class is equal to the lower limit of the next class (e.g., 0-10, 10-20).
  • The lower limit is included in the class, but the upper limit is excluded (it goes into the next class).
  • Suitable for continuous data (like height, weight, temperature).

(iii) In which class the number of leaves is the largest? 30 : : 111-120 | 121-130 | 131-140 | 141-150 | 151-160 | 161-170 : 3 | 5 | 7 | 9 | 4 | 2

💡 Solution:

(i) Converting Inclusive Classes to Continuous Exclusive Classes

Adjustment factor = (121 – 120) / 2 = 0.5.

Continuous Class Intervals and Class Marks

  • 110.5 – 120.5 : Frequency = 3, Class mark = 115.5
  • 120.5 – 130.5 : Frequency = 5, Class mark = 125.5
  • 130.5 – 140.5 : Frequency = 7, Class mark = 135.5
  • 140.5 – 150.5 : Frequency = 9, Class mark = 145.5
  • 150.5 – 160.5 : Frequency = 4, Class mark = 155.5
  • 160.5 – 170.5 : Frequency = 2, Class mark = 165.5

Histogram Construction

Plot continuous class boundaries on X-axis and number of leaves on Y-axis. Construct rectangles of heights 3, 5, 7, 9, 4, 2.

(ii) Direct Method for Frequency Polygon

  1. Coordinates for points: P1(115.5, 3), P2(125.5, 5), P3(135.5, 7), P4(145.5, 9), P5(155.5, 4), P6(165.5, 2).
  2. Take preceding class mark 105.5 at P0(105.5, 0) and succeeding class mark 175.5 at P7(175.5, 0) on X-axis.
  3. Join P0-P1-P2-P3-P4-P5-P6-P7 with straight line segments.

(iii) The largest number of leaves is in the class 141-150 (or continuous class 140.5-150.5 mm) with frequency = 9.

💡 Solution:

  1. Convert to Continuous Class Intervals & Calculate Class Marks

Adjustment factor = (7 – 6) / 2 = 0.5.

  • 0.5 – 6.5 : Class mark = 3.5 | Team A = 3 | Team B = 6
  • 6.5 – 12.5 : Class mark = 9.5 | Team A = 2 | Team B = 6
  • 12.5 – 18.5 : Class mark = 15.5 | Team A = 7 | Team B = 1
  • 18.5 – 24.5 : Class mark = 21.5 | Team A = 8 | Team B = 10
  • 24.5 – 30.5 : Class mark = 27.5 | Team A = 3 | Team B = 6
  • 30.5 – 36.5 : Class mark = 33.5 | Team A = 8 | Team B = 5
  • 36.5 – 42.5 : Class mark = 39.5 | Team A = 5 | Team B = 3
  • 42.5 – 48.5 : Class mark = 45.5 | Team A = 11 | Team B = 4
  • 48.5 – 54.5 : Class mark = 51.5 | Team A = 6 | Team B = 7
  • 54.5 – 60.5 : Class mark = 57.5 | Team A = 2 | Team B = 11
  1. Terminal Class Marks on X-axis

Preceding class mark = -2.5 (at 0 runs/frequency)

Succeeding class mark = 63.5 (at 0 runs/frequency)

  1. Graph Construction
  • Plot Class Marks on X-axis and Runs Scored on Y-axis.
  • Draw Team A polygon using solid line joining (-2.5, 0), (3.5, 3), (9.5, 2), (15.5, 7), (21.5, 8), (27.5, 3), (33.5, 8), (39.5, 5), (45.5, 11), (51.5, 6), (57.5, 2), and (63.5, 0).
  • Draw Team B polygon using dashed line joining (-2.5, 0), (3.5, 6), (9.5, 6), (15.5, 1), (21.5, 10), (27.5, 6), (33.5, 5), (39.5, 3), (45.5, 4), (51.5, 7), (57.5, 11), and (63.5, 0).

Question 5

The frequency distribution of marks obtained by 100…


📝 Question:

The frequency distribution of marks obtained by 100 students is as follows: Marks obtained: 0-10 | 10-20 | 20-30 | 30-40 | 40-50 | 50-60 | Total Number of students: 7 | 10 | 23 | 51 | 6 | 3 | 100 Make a cumulative frequency curve using the above data. 100 : : 0-10 | 10-20 | 20-30 | 30-40 | 40-50 | 50-60 | : 7 | 10 | 23 | 51 | 6 | 3 | 100

💡 Solution:

“Less than” Cumulative Frequency Table

  • Marks less than 10 : Cumulative Frequency = 7
  • Marks less than 20 : Cumulative Frequency = 7 + 10 = 17
  • Marks less than 30 : Cumulative Frequency = 17 + 23 = 40
  • Marks less than 40 : Cumulative Frequency = 40 + 51 = 91
  • Marks less than 50 : Cumulative Frequency = 91 + 6 = 97
  • Marks less than 60 : Cumulative Frequency = 97 + 3 = 100

Construction of Ogive Curve

  1. Plot upper class limits (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60) on X-axis and Cumulative Frequencies on Y-axis.
  2. Plot coordinates: (0, 0), (10, 7), (20, 17), (30, 40), (40, 91), (50, 97), (60, 100).
  3. Connect all points sequentially with a smooth freehand curve to obtain the “Less than” Ogive.

📝 Question:

Make the frequency table and the cumulative frequency curve for the following data: Marks Obtained | Number of Students less than 10 | 3 less than 20 | 8 less than 30 | 12 less than 40 | 19 less than 50 | 31 less than 60 | 42 less than 70 | 60 : | 10 | 3 20 | 8 30 | 12 40 | 19 50 | 31 60 | 42 70 | 60

💡 Solution:

Frequency Table Derivation from Cumulative Frequencies

  • 0 – 10 : Frequency = 3
  • 10 – 20 : Frequency = 8 – 3 = 5
  • 20 – 30 : Frequency = 12 – 8 = 4
  • 30 – 40 : Frequency = 19 – 12 = 7
  • 40 – 50 : Frequency = 31 – 19 = 12
  • 50 – 60 : Frequency = 42 – 31 = 11
  • 60 – 70 : Frequency = 60 – 42 = 18

Total Frequency = 3 + 5 + 4 + 7 + 12 + 11 + 18 = 60 students.

Cumulative Frequency Curve (Ogive) Construction

Plot points (0, 0), (10, 3), (20, 8), (30, 12), (40, 19), (50, 31), (60, 42), (70, 60) with upper limits on X-axis and cumulative frequency on Y-axis. Join with a smooth curve.
