Answer:

We know that,

Mean =Sum of observationsNumber of observations

The first five observations are x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6 and x + 8.

Mean of these numbers = x+x+2+x+4+x+6+x+85
13=5x+20513×5=5x+2065=5x+205x=65-205x=45x=455x=9

Hence, the value of x is 9.

Now, the last three observations are 13, 15 and 17.
Mean of these observations = 13+15+173
                                             = 453
                                             = 15

Hence, the mean of the last three observations is 15.

Answer:

Mean weight of 34 students = 46.5 kg
Sum of the weights of 34 students = (46.5×34) kg=1581 kg
Increase in the mean weight when the weight of the teacher is included = 500 g = 0.5 kg
∴ New mean weight = (46.5 + 0.5) kg = 47 kg
Now,
Let the weight of the teacher be x kg.
Thus, we have:

Sum of the weights of 34 students+Weight of the teacher35=471581+x35=471581+x=1645x=64

Therefore, the weight of the teacher is 64 kg.

Answer:

Mean weight of 36 students = 41 kg
Sum of the weights of 36 students = 41×36 kg=1476 kg
Decrease in the mean when one of the students left the class = 200 g = 0.2 kg
Mean weight of 35 students = (41 - 0.2) kg = 40.8 kg
Now,
Let the weight of the student who left the class be x kg.

Thus, we have: Sum of the weights of 36 students-x35=40.81476-x35=40.81476-x=1428x=48

Hence, the weight of the student who left the class is 48 kg.

Answer:

Average weight of 39 students = 40 kg
Sum of the weights of 39 students = 40×39 kg=1560 kg
Decrease in the average when new student is admitted in the class = 200 g = 0.2 kg
∴ New average weight = (40 - 0.2) kg = 39.8 kg
Now,
Let the weight of the new student be x kg.
Thus, we have:

Sum of the weights of 39 students+x40=39.81560+x40=39.81560+x=1592x=32

Therefore, the weight of the new student is 32 kg.

Mean of the first 16 results = 58
Sum of the first 16 results = 58×16=928
Mean of the last 16 results = 62
Sum of the last 16 results = 62×16=992
Value of the 16th result = (Sum of the first 16 results + Sum of the last 16 results) - Sum of 31 results
= (928 + 992) - 1860
= 1920 - 1860

Sum of the first 6 numbers = 37×6 = 222
Mean of the last 6 numbers = 46
Sum of the last 6 numbers = 46×6 = 276
∴ 6th number = [(Sum of the first 6 numbers + Sum of the last 6 numbers) - Sum of 11 numbers]
= [(222 + 276) - 462]
= [498 - 462]
= 36
Hence, the 6th number is 36.

Answer:

Mean weight of 25 students = 52 kg
Sum of the weights of 25 students = (52×25) kg = 1300 kg
Mean weight of the first 13 students = 48 kg
Sum of the weights of the first 13 students = (48×13) kg = 624 kg
Mean weight of the last 13 students = 55 kg
Sum of the weights of the last 13 students = (55×13) kg =715 kg
Weight of the 13th student = (Sum of the weights of the first 13 students + Sum of the weights of the last 13 students) - Sum of the weights of 25 students
                                        = [(624+715)-1300] kg
                                        = 39 kg
Therefore, the weight of the 13th student is 39 kg.

Answer:

The aggregate yearly expenditure of a family = Rs (18720 × 3) + Rs (20340 × 4) + Rs (21708 × 5)
                                                                            = Rs (56160 + 81360 + 108540)
                                                                            = Rs 246060

The total savings during the year = Rs 35340

The average yearly income = Rs 246060 + Rs 35340
                                            = Rs 281400

∴ The average monthly income of the family = 28140012 =Rs 23450

Answer:

Total salary of 75 workers = â‚ą 5680 × 75
                                           = â‚ą 426000

Total salary of 25 workers = â‚ą 5400 × 25
                                           = â‚ą 135000

Total salary of 30 workers = â‚ą 5700 × 30
                                           = â‚ą 171000

No. of remaining workers = 75 − (25 +30)
                                          = 20

Total salary of 20 workers = â‚ą (426000 − 135000 − 171000)
                                           = â‚ą 120000

∴ The mean weekly payment of the 20 workers = 12000020
                                                                             = â‚ą 6000

Hence, the mean weekly payment of the remaining workers is â‚ą 6000.

We know that,
Mean = xififi

For the following data:

 x 10 20 30 40 50 60 Total
 f 4 f1 8 f2 3 4 35

Mean = 10×4+20×f1+30×8+40×f2+50×3+60×435
34=40+20f1+240+40f2+150+240353435=670+20f1+40f21190-670=20f1+40f220f1+40f2=52020f1+2f2=520f1+2f2=52020f1+2f2=26f1=26-2f2              ...1

Also, 4 + f1 + 8 + f2 + 3 + 4 = 35
⇒ 19 + f1f2 = 35
f1f2 = 35 − 19
f1f2 = 16
⇒ 26 − 2f2f 2 = 16             (from (1))
⇒ 26 − f2 = 16
⇒ 26 − 16 =  f2
⇒  f2 = 10

Putting the value of f2 in (1), we get
f1 = 26 − 2(10) = 6

Hence, the value of f1 and  f2 is 6 and 10, respectively.

  fi = 120 fi xi = 3480 + 30f1 + 70f2

Thus, we have:
Mean = fixixi

50 = 3480+30f1+70f2120

+ f1 + 32 + f2 + 19 = 120
68 + f1 + f2 = 120
f1 + f2 = 52
or, f2 = 52 - f1  
...(ii)
By putting the value of f2
in (i), we get:
2520
 = 30f1 + 70(52 - f1)
2520 = 30f1 + 3640 - 70f1
40f1 = 1120
f1 = 28
Substituting the value in (ii), we get:
f2 = 52 - f1 = 52 - 28 = 24

22, 34, 39, 45, 54, 54, 56, 68, 78, 84
Here, n is 10, which is an even number.
Thus, we have:
Median=Mean of n2th & n2+1th observations            =125th observation+6th observation           =1254+54=54

(b) 21

The given data is in ascending order.
Here, n is 10, which is an even number.
Thus, we have:
Median =Mean of n2th & n2+1th observations            =125th observation+6th observation            =12(x+2+x+4)=(x+3)            =24Also,x+3=24x=21
