Answer: Option A. -> True
:
A
The formula for the mode is as follows.
Mode=l+(f1−f02f1−f0−f2)×h
l= lower boundary of the modal class
h= size of the modal class interval
f1= frequency of the modal class.
f0= frequency of the class preceding the modal class
f2=frequency of the class succeeding the modal class
If the preceding and succeeding classes have the same frequency, then f0=f2=f(say).
Then the equation reduces to
Mode=l+(f1−f2f1−f−f)×h
Mode=l+(f1−f2(f1−f))×h
Mode=l+12×h, which is the midpointof the modal class.
∴If the preceding and succeeding classes of the modal class have the same frequency, then the mode will be at the midpoint of the modal class.

Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
The class mark is the midpoint of the lower and upper limits of a class. It is calculated by taking the average of the upper and lower limits i.e.
Class mark = Upperlimit+Lowerlimit2

Answer: Option A. -> 4
:
A
We know that,
3 Median = Mode + 2 Mean
or
Mode = 3 Median - 2 Mean
= 3×6−2×7
= 18 - 14
= 4
Therefore, mode = 4

D
ClassFrequencyCumulativeFrequency0 - 20101020 - 4071740 - 60163360 - 80p33+p80 -100841+p
Since median is 50, median class is 40-60.
Using
Median=l+[n2−cff]×h,
Here,n=41+p,
⟹n2=(41+p)2
Now,50=40+[(41+p)2−1716×20]
⟹10=[(41+p−34)216×20]
⟹10=[(7+p)16×2×20]
Simplifying, we get (7+p)16=1
7+p=16
p=9

Answer: Option A. -> xi−A
:
A
In statistics, 'theassumed mean' is a method for calculating the arithmeticmeanand standard deviation of a data set. It simplifies calculating accurate values by hand.
During the application of the short-cut method for finding the mean, the deviation d, are divisible by a common number ‘h’.In this case, the di = xi – A is reduced to a great extent as 'di' becomes dih.In this method,we divide the deviations by the same number to simplify calculations.The deviation is di=xi−A

Answer: Option B. -> 20 - 30

B
The given table can be written as:
Marks0−1010−2020−3030−4040−50No. of students551389CumulativeFrequency510233140
No. of students can be calculated as follows:
5
10 - 5 = 5
23 - 10 = 13
31 - 23 = 8
40 - 31 = 9
∴n2=402=20
Since there are a total of 40 observations, the median class is the one whose cumulative frequency is closest to and greater than 20.
Here the cumulative frequency for the class interval '10 - 20' is 23 which is greater than 20.
The class interval 20 - 30 is the required answer.

Answer: Option A. -> l+(f1−f02f1−f0−f2) ×h
:
A
l+(f1−f02f1−f0−f2) ×his used to determine the mode .
A mode is that value among the observations which occurs most often, that is, the value of the observation having the maximum frequency.
