1. A square and a rectangular field with measurements as given in the figure have the same perimeter. Which field has a larger area?

Question (a)
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Mensuration Ex 11.1 1
Solution:
Side of a square field = 60 m
∴ Perimeter of a square field = 4 × side
= 4 × 60 = 240 m
Area of a square field = (side)2
= (60)2
= 60 × 60
= 3600m2

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Mensuration Ex 11.1

Question (b)
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Mensuration Ex 11.1 2
Solution:
Perimeter of a rectangular field = Perimeter of square field
∴ Perimeter of a rectangular held = 240
∴ 2 (length + breadth) = 240
∴ 2 (80 + breadth) = 240
∴ 80 + breadth = \(\frac {240}{2}\)
∴ 80 + breadth =120
∴ breadth = 120 – 80
∴ breadth = 40
Breadth of rectangular field = 40 m
∴ Area of rectangular field = length × breadth
= (80 × 40)
= 3200 m2
Area of square field > Area of rectangular field
Thus, area of square field (a) is larger.

2. Mrs. Kaushik has a square plot with the measurement as shown g in the figure. She wants to construct a house in the middle of the plot. A garden is developed around the house. Find the total cost of developing a garden around the house at the rate of ₹ 55 per m2.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Mensuration Ex 11.1 3
Solution:
Side of the square plot = 25 m
∴ Area of the square plot = (side)2
= (25 × 25) m2
= 625 m2
In square plot, a rectangular-shaped house is to be constructed.
∴ Area of the constructed house
= length × breadth
= (20 × 15) m2
= 300 m2
∴ Area of the garden = Area of square plot – Area of constructed house
= 625 – 300 = 325 m2
Cost of developing garden of 1 m2 is ₹ 55
∴ Cost of developing garden of 325 m2
= ₹ (55 × 325)
= ₹ 17,875
Thus, total cost of developing garden is ₹ 17,875.

3. The shape of a garden is rectangular in the middle and semicircular at the ends as shown in the diagram. Find the area and the perimeter of this garden [Length of rectangle is 20 – (3.5+ 3.5) metres].

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Mensuration Ex 11.1 4
Solution:
[Note: Here 2 semicircles at the ends of a rectangular garden makes a whole circle. So first find area of a circle and then area of a rectangle. Sum of these two areas is total area. Follow same pattern to find perimeter too. For perimeter of a garden, take only length as rectangle is between two semicircles. Diameter of a circle = Breadth of a rectangle = 7 m]
For semicircle:
∴ Radius = \(\frac{\text { diameter }}{\text { 2 }}\) = \(\frac {7}{2}\)m
Area of circle = πr²
Area of a semicircle = \(\frac {1}{2}\)πr²
∴ Area of 2 semicircles = 2(\(\frac {1}{2}\)πr²)
= \(\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{7}{2} \times \frac{7}{2}\)m2
= 38.5 m2
Circumference of two semicircles = 2πr
= 2 × \(\frac {22}{7}\) × \(\frac {7}{2}\)
= 22 m

For rectangle:
length = 20 – (3.5 + 3.5) = 20 – 7 = 13 m
breadth = 7 m
Area of the rectangle = length × breadth
= 13 × 7 = 91 m2
Perimeter of the rectangle
= 2 (length × breadth)
= 2 (13 + 0)
= 2 × 13 = 26 m
∴ Total area of the garden = (38.5 + 91) m2
= 129.5 m2
∴ Perimeter of the garden = (22 + 26) m
= 48 m
Thus, area of the garden is 129.5 m2 and the perimeter is 48 m.

4. A flooring tile has the shape of a parallelogram whose base is 24 cm and the corresponding height is 10 cm. How many such tiles are required to cover a floor of area 1080 m2? (If required you can split the tiles in whatever way you want to fill up the corners.)
Solution:
[Note : To find number of tiles, divide the area of the floor by area of a tile. Let us do it in a simple way. Unit of floor area and tile area should be same.] Here, tile is parallelogram shaped.
So it’s area = base × corresponding height
Area of a floor = 1080 m2
Base of a tile = 24 cm = \(\frac {24}{100}\) m
Corresponding height of a tile = 10 cm = \(\frac {10}{100}\) m
Number of tiles = \(\frac{\text { Area of a floor }}{\text { Area of a title }}\)
= \(\frac{1080}{\frac{24}{100} \times \frac{10}{100}}\)
= \(\frac{1080 \times 100 \times 100}{24 \times 10}\)
= 45,000
Thus, 45,000 tiles are required to cover the given floor.

5. An ant is moving around a few food pieces of different shapes scattered on the floor. For which food piece would the ant have to take a longer round? Remember, circumference of a circle can be obtained by using the expression c = 2 πr, where r is the radius of the circle.

Question (a)
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Mensuration Ex 11.1 5
Solution:
Here, the shape is semi-circular.
Diameter = 2.8 cm
Radius = \(\frac{\text { Diameter }}{2}=\frac{2.8}{2}\) = 1.4 cm
Circumference of a semicircle = πr
Perimeter of the given figure
= πr + diameter
= (\(\frac {22}{7}\) × 1.4) + 2.8
= 4.4 + 2.8
= 7.2 cm

Question (b)
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Mensuration Ex 11.1 6
Solution:
Here, given shape is semicircular at one side, (radius = \(\frac {2.8}{2}\) = 1.4 cm)
So perimeter of semicircular region (circumference) = πr
= \(\frac {22}{7}\) × 1.4
= \(\frac {22}{7}\) × \(\frac {14}{10}\)
= 4.4 cm … (i)
Perimeter of the other portion
= breadth + length + breadth
= (1.5 + 2.8 + 1.5) cm
= 5.8 cm … (ii)
∴ Perimeter of the given figure
= (4.4 + 5.8) cm [from (i) and (ii)]
= 10.2 cm

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Mensuration Ex 11.1

Question (c)
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Mensuration Ex 11.1 7
Solution:
Perimeter of a given part
(semi circular circumference) = πr
= \(\frac {22}{7}\) × 1.4
= 4.4 cm
∴ Perimeter of the given figure
= (4.4 + 2 + 2) cm
= 8.4 cm
Thus, 7.2 cm < 8.4 cm < 10.2 cm.
Thus, the ant would has to take a longer round for food piece (b), as it has a larger perimeter.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2

Question 1.
The following table shows the ages of the patients admitted in a hospital during a year:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2 1

Find the mode and the mean of the data given above. Compare and interpret the two measures of central tendency.

Solution:
For mode:
In the given data, Maximum frequency is 23 and it corresponds to the class interval 35 – 45
Modal class = 35 – 45
So, l = 35; f1 = 23; f0 = 21; f2 = 14 and h = 10
Using fonnula, Mode l = l + \(\left(\frac{f_{1}-f_{0}}{2 f_{1}-f_{0}-f_{2}}\right)\) × h
Mode = 35 + \(\left[\frac{23-21}{2(23)-21-14}\right]\) × 10
= 35 + \(\frac{2}{46-35}\) × 10
= 35 + \(\frac{20}{11}\) = 35 + 1.8 = 36.8.

For Mean:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2 2

From above data,
Assumed mean (a) = 30
Width of class (h) = 10
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}=\frac{43}{80}\) = 0.5375
Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 30 + 10 (0.5375)
= 30 + 5.375 = 35.375 = 35.37
Hence, mode of given data is 36.8 years and mean of the given data is 35.37 years. Also, it is clear from above discussion that average age of a patient admitted in the hospital is 35.37 years and maximum number of patients admitted in the hospital are of age 36.8 years.

Question 2.
The following data gives the information on the observed lifetimes (in hours) of 225 electrical components:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2 3

Determine the ¡nodal lifetimes of the components.
Solution:
In the given data.
Maximum frequency is 61 and it corresponds to the class interval 60 – 80.
∴ Model class = 60 – 80
So, l = 60; f1 = 61 ; f0 = 52; f2 = 38 and h = 20
Using formula, Mode = l + \(\left(\frac{f_{1}-f_{0}}{2 f_{1}-f_{0}-f_{2}}\right)\) × h

Mode = 60 + \(\left(\frac{61-52}{2(61)-52-38}\right)\) × 20

= 60 + \(\frac{9}{122-52-38}\) × 20

= 60 + \(\frac{9}{32}\) × 20

= 60 + \(\frac{180}{32}\)

= 60 + 5.625 = 65.625
Hence, modal Lifetimes of the components is 65.625 hours.

Question 3.
The following data gives the distribution of total monthly household expenditure of 200 families of a village. Find the modal monthly expenditure of the families. Also, find the mean monthly expenditure:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2 4

Solution:
For Mode: In the given data.
Maximum frequency is 40, and it corresponds to the class interval 1500 – 2000.
∴ Model class = 1500 – 2000
So, l = 1500; f1 = 40; f0 = 24; f2 = 33 and h = 500
Using formula, Mode = l + \(\left(\frac{f_{1}-f_{0}}{2 f_{1}-f_{0}-f_{2}}\right)\) × h

= 1500 + \(\left\{\frac{40-24}{2(40)-24-33}\right\}\) × 500

= 1500 + \(\left\{\frac{16}{80-24-33}\right\}\) × 500

= 1500 + \(\frac{16 \times 500}{23}\)

= 1500 + \(\frac{8000}{23}\) = 1500 + 347.83 = 1847.83

For Mean:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2 5

From above data,

Assumed Mean (a) = 2750
Length of width (h) = 500
\(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}=-\frac{35}{200}\) = – 0.175
Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\overline{\mathbf{X}}\) = 2750 + 500 (- 0.175)
= 2750 – 87.50 = 2662.50
Hence, the modal monthly expenditure of family is 1847.83 and the mean monthly expenditure is 2662.50.

Question 4.
The following distribution gives the slate-wise teacher-student ratio in higher secondary schools of India. Find the mode and mean of this data. Interpret the two measures.

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2 6

Solution:
For Mode:
In the given data,
Maximum frequency is 10 and it corresponds to the class interval is 30 – 35.
∴ Modal class = 30 – 35.
So, l = 30; f1 = 10; f0 = 9; f2 = 3 and h = 5
using formula, Mode = l + \(\left(\frac{f_{1}-f_{0}}{2 f_{1}-f_{0}-f_{2}}\right)\) × h
Mode = 30 + \(\left(\frac{10-9}{2(10)-9-3}\right)\) × 5
= 30 + \(\frac{1}{20-12}\) × 5
= 30 + \(\frac{5}{8}\) = 30 + 0.625 = 30.625 = 30.63 (approx.)

For mean:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2 7

From above data, Assumed Mean (a) = 32.5
Width of class (h) = 5
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}=-\frac{23}{35}\) = – 0.65

Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\overline{\mathbf{X}}\) = 32.5 + 5 (- 0.65)
= 32..5 – 3.25 = 29.25 (approx.)
Hence, mode and mean of given data is 30.63 and 29.25. Also, from above discussion, it clear that states/U.T. have student per teacher is 30.63 and on average, this ratio is 29.25.

The given distribution shows the number of runs scored by some top batsmen of the world in one-day international cricket matches

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2 8

Find the mode of the data.
Solution:
In the given data,
Maximum frequency is 18 and it corresponds to the class interval 4000 – 5000.
∴ Modal class = 4000 – 5000
So, l = 4000; f1 = 18; f0 = 4; f2 = 9 and h = 1000
Using formula, Mode = l + \(\left(\frac{f_{1}-f_{0}}{2 f_{1}-f_{0}-f_{2}}\right)\) × h

Mode = 4000 + \(\left(\frac{18-4}{2(18)-4-9}\right)\) × 1000

= 4000 + \(\frac{14}{36-13}\) × 1000

= 4000 + \(\frac{14000}{23}\) = 4000 + 608.6956

= 4000 + 608.7 = 4608.7 (approx.)

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.2 9

Solution:
In the given data,
Maximum frequency is 20 and it corresponds to the class interval 40 – 50
∴ Modal Class = 40 – 50
So, l = 40; f1 = 20; f0 = 12; f2= 11 and h = 10
Using formula, Mode = l + \(\left(\frac{f_{1}-f_{0}}{2 f_{1}-f_{0}-f_{2}}\right)\) × h

Mode = 40 + \(\left(\frac{20-12}{2(20)-12-11}\right)\) × 10

= 40 + \(\frac{8}{40-23}\) × 10

= 40 + \(\frac{80}{17}\) = 40 + 4.70588

= 40 + 4.7 = 44.7 (approx.)
Hence, mode of the given data is 44.7 cars.

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions

Think, Discuss and Write (Textbook Page No. 58)

Question 1.
Arshad has five measurements of a quadrilateral ABCD. These are AB = 5 cm, ∠A = 50°, AC = 4 cm, BD = 5 cm and AD = 6 cm. Can he construct a unique quadrilateral ? Give reasons for your answer.
Solution:
No, the quadrilateral ABCD cannot be constructed with the given combination of measurements. If the length of side BC or DC is given, then only □ ABCD can be constructed.

Think, Discuss and Write (Textbook Page No. 60)

Question (i).
We saw that 5 measurements of a quadrilateral can determine a quadrilateral uniquely. Do you think any five measurements of the quadrilateral can do this ?
Solution:
No, any 5 measurements can’t determine a s quadrilateral. To construct a quadrilateral, specific combination of measurements should be needed such as :

  • Four sides and one diagonal
  • Four sides and one angle
  • Three sides and two diagonals
  • Two adjacent sides and three angles
  • Three sides and two included angles
  • Some special properties should be given,

Question (ii).
Can you draw a parallelogram BATS where BA = 5 cm, AT = 6 cm and AS = 6.5 cm? Why?
Solution:
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 1
Here, to draw a parallelogram BATS, BA = 5 cm, AT = 6 cm and AS = 6.5 cm are given. In parallelogram length of opposite sides are equal. So ST = AB = 5 cm and SB = AT = 6 cm. First we can draw A ASB where SB = 6 cm, AB = 5 cm and AS = 6.5 cm. Then draw ΔATS where AT = 6 cm, ST = 5 cm.
Thus, we can draw a parallelogram from given measurements.

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions

Question (iii).
Can you draw a rhombus ZEAL where ZE = 3.5 cm, diagonal EL = 5 cm ? Why?
Solution:
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 2
Here, to draw a rhombus ZEAL, ZE = 3.5 cm and EL = 5 cm are given. All of rhombus are equal to each other. So ZE = EA = AL = LZ = 3.5 cm. Moreover, diagonal EL = 5 cm Is given.
So We know all necessary measurements to draw rhombus. Yes, we can draw a rhombus ZEAL.

Question (iv).
A student attempted to draw a quadrilateral PLAY where PL = 3 cm, LA = 4 cm, AY = 4.5 cm, PY = 2 cm and LY = 6 cm, but could not draw it. What is the reason?
[Hint: Discuss it using a rough sketch. ]
Solution :
Here, to draw a quadrilateral PLAY,
PL = 3 cm, LA = 4 cm, AY = 4.5 cm, PY = 2 cm and LY = 6 cm are given.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 3
Now, let us look at measurements of
ΔPLY. PL + PY = 3 cm + 2 cm = 5 cm while YL = 6 cm.
We know that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of triangle is always greater than the length of the third side.
So point P cannot be determined even after constructing ΔLAY. Thus, a student failed s due to this reason.

Think, Discuss and Write (Textbook Page No. 62)

Question 1.
In the above example, can we draw the quadrilateral by drawing ΔABD first and then find the fourth point C ?
Solution:
Since, the measurement of AB is not given, we cannot draw ΔABD, so question does not arise to find the foruth point C.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 4
Thus, we cannot draw the quadrilateral

Question 2.
Can you construct a quadrilateral PQRS with PQ = 3 cm, RS = 3 cm, PS = 7.5 cm, PR = 8 cm and SQ = 4 cm ? Justify your answer.
Solution:
No, the quadrilateral PQRS cannot be constructed as in ΔQSP, SQ + PQ ≯ SP

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions

Think, Discuss and Write (Textbook Page No. 64)

Question 1.
Can you construct the above quadrilateral MIST if we have 100° at M instead of 75° ?
Solution:
Yes. The quadrilateral MIST can be constructed with ∠M = 100° instead of 75°.
[Note : Only size of quadrilateral is changed.]

Question 2.
Can you construct the quadrilateral PLAN if PL = 6 cm, LA = 9.5 cm, ∠P = 75°, ∠L = 150° and ∠A = 140° ?
[Hint: Recall angle sum property.]
Solution:
Here, ∠P + ∠L + ∠A + ∠N
= 75° + 150° + 140° + ∠N
= 365° + ∠N
∴ Construction of quadrilateral PLAN is not possible as according to angle sum property. The sum of all the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°. Here, 365° + N > 360°.

Question 3.
In a parallelogram, the lengths of adjacent sides are known. Do we still need measures of the angles to construct as in the example above?
Solution :
In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are parallel and of equal length. Here, we know the lengths of adjacent sides, so measures of the angles are not needed.
If we know the length of a diagonal the quadrilateral can be drawn.

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions

Think, Discuss and Write (Textbook Page No. 66)

Question 1.
In the above example, we first drew BC. Instead, what could have been be the other starting points?
Solution :
Instead of drawing BC, we can start with \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) or \(\overline{\mathrm{CD}}\).

Question 2.
We used some five measurements to draw quadrilaterals so far. Can there be different sets of five measurements (other than seen so far) to draw a quadrilateral ? The following problems may help you in answering the question.
(i) Quadrilateral ABCD with AB = 5 cm, BC = 5.5 cm, CD = 4 cm, AD = 6 cm and ∠B = 80°.
(ii) Quadrilateral PQRS with PQ = 4.5 cm, ∠P = 70°, ∠Q = 100°, ∠R = 80° and ∠S = 110°.
Construct a few more examples of your own to find sufficiency/insufficiency of the data for construction of a quadrilateral.
Solution:
(i) Here, four sides and one angle are given. So given data is sufficient to construct quadrilateral ABCD.
(ii) We cannot locate the points R and S with the help of given data. So given data is insufficient to construct quadrilateral PQRS.

Few examples of sufficient data to construct quadrilaterals :

  • Quadrilateral PQRS in which RS = 6 cm, QR = 5 cm, PQ = 5 cm, ∠Q = 135°, ∠R = 90°. (three sides and two angles)
  • Quadrilateral ABCD in which AB = 5 cm, BC = 4 cm, ∠B = 60°, ∠A = 90° and ∠C = 135°. (two sides and three angles)

Try these (Textbook Page No. 67)

Question 1.
How will you construct a rectangle PQRS if you know only the lengths PQ and QR?
Solution:
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 5
Each angle of a rectangle is a right angle. Rectangle has opposite sides of equal lengths. Here, PQ is given, So PQ = RS.
ΔPQR can be drawn using PQ, QR and ∠Q = 90°.
ΔQRS can be drawn using QR, RS and ∠R = 90°.
Thus, the required rectangle PQRS can be constructed.

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 7

Solution:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 8

From above data,
Assumed Mean (a) = 75.5
Width of Class (h) = 3
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\sum f_{i} u_{i}}{\sum f_{i}}\)
= \(\frac{4}{30}\) (approx.)
Using formula,
Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
= 75.5 + 3 (0.13) = 75.5 + 0.39
\(\overline{\mathrm{X}}\) = 75.89
Hence, mean heart beats per minute for women is 75.89.

Question 5.
In a retail market, fruit vendors were selling mangoes kept in packing boxes. These boxes contained varying number mangoes. The following was the distribution of mangoes according to the number of boxes.

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 9

Find the mean number of mangoes kept in a packing box. Which method of finding the mean did you choose?
Solution:
Since, values of number of mamgoes and number of boxes are large numerically. So, we must use step-deviation method.

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 10

From above data,
Assumed Mean (a) = 57
Width of class (h) = 3
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\sum f_{i} u_{i}}{\sum f_{i}}\)

\(\bar{u}=\frac{25}{400}\) = 0.0625

Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 57 + 3(0.0625)
= 57 + 0.1875 = 57.1875 = 57.19.
Hence, mean number of mangoes kept in a packing box is 57.19.

Question 6.
The table below shows the daily expenditure on food of 25 households in a locality.

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 11

Find the mean daily expenditure on food by a suitable method.

Solution:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 12

From above data,
Assumed mean (a) = 225
Width of class (h) = 50
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}\)

\(\bar{u}=-\frac{7}{25}\) = 0.28
Using formula,
Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 225 + 50 (- 0.28)
\(\bar{X}\) = 225 – 14
\(\bar{X}\) = 211
Hence, mean daily expenditure on food is ₹ 211.

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 13

Find the mean concentration of SO2 in the air.
Solution:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 14

From above data,
Assumed mean (a) = 0.10
Width of class (h) = 0.04
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}\)

\(\bar{u}=-\frac{1}{30}\) = – 0.33(approx.)
Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 0.10 + 0.04 (- 0.33)
= 0.10 – 0.0013 = 0.0987 (approx.)
Hence, mean concentration of SO2 in the air is 0.0987 ppm.

A class teacher has the folloing absentee record of 40 students of a class for the whole term. Find the mean number of days a student was absent.

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 15

Solution:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 16

From above data,
Assumed Mean (a) = 17
Using formula, Mean(\(\bar{X}\)) = a + \(\frac{\Sigma f_{i} d_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 17 + \(-\frac{181}{40}\)
= 17 – 4.52 = 12.48.
Hence, mean 12.48 number of days a student was absent.

Question 9.
The following table gives the literacy rate (in percentage) of 35 citIes. Find the mean literacy rate.

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 17

Solution:

PSEB 10th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1 18

From the above data,
Assumed Mean (a) = 70
Width of class (h) = 10
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}=\frac{-2}{35}\) = – 0.057

Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 70 + 10 (- 0.057)
= 70 – 0.57 = 69.43
Hence, mean literacy rate is 69.43%.
