Q1 ) Distribution of weights for an item is as follows

Weight in 150—175 175—200 200—225 225—250 250—275 275—300


kgs
No. of 100 115 ? 120 100 90
items

If third quartile value for above distribution = 256.875 kgs,


find missing frequency and value of first quartile.

Q2 Find missing data, given that the mode is 4400 hours and mean is 4100 hours
Life of 1000— 2000— 3000— 4000— 5000-- 6000— 7000—
bulb in 2000 3000 4000 5000 6000 7000 8000
hours
No. of 100 ? 200 ? 150 50 50
bulbs

Q3 ( a ) Explain following
1. Discrete and continuous data.
2. Frequency polygon and histogram.
3. Multiple bar-chart and subdivided bar-chart.
4. Less than ogive and more than ogive.
5. Pie chart and cube chart

( b ) State whether following statements are true or false, giving reasons


1. Median is a mathematical average.
2. A distribution cannot have more than one mode.
3. Median value of 7 terms will not change, if all terms beyond median are
increased by 5.
4. We prefer median as measure of central tendency when data are qualitative.
5. If variance of a distribution is 4, its standard deviation is + 2 or – 2.
6. Standard deviation will not change if every term is added by 5.
7. Standard deviation is not affected by change of scale process.
8. Skewness and kurtosis are properties of distribution meant for assessing
amount of variation.
9. Coefficient of variation is a relative measure of dispersion.
10. Sum of deviations of every term from median is always zero

.
Q4 For vendor evaluations, following data are given,

Criteria Performance score Weight


Quality 60 50
On-time delivery 50 30
Competitive price 40 20

Calculate vendor score based on above data.

Q5 A garment factory makes shirts for men and women. Average profit of factory
is 8 % of sales. Average profit of men’s shirt is 10 %. Women’s shirt form 60%
of total sales. What is average profit on women’s shirt?

Q6 Following table shows data on a continuous variable,

Value in 10—12 12—14 14—16 16—18 18—20 20—22 22—24


Rs ‘000
Frequenc 8 11 ? 25 13 ? 5
y

Given that this distribution has median = Rs 16400 and mode = Rs 16500, find
missing frequencies.

Q7 Data for hourly wages of workers in a factory, are as follows

Wages Rs 80—100 100—120 120—140 140—160 160—180 180—200


No. of 112 140 160 176 140 72
workers

Calculate D7, P77 and limits for middle 50% range

Q8 Data for a variable are as follows

Value Less Less Less Less Less Less Less Less


than 10 than 20 than 30 than40 than 50 than 60 than70 than 80
No. of 4 16 40 76 96 112 120 125
readings

Calculate mean, median, mode.


Show median and mode values by graphical method.
Can you show your calculated mean graphically also? Justify
Q9 Based on track record for two batsmen, answer
1) Who makes more runs?
2) Who makes more consistent runs?

Record for Vinod

Runs 60 75 85 95 110
No. of 8 5 10 5 2
innings

Record for Ajit

Runs 50 85 95 105 120


No. of 3 10 7 7 3
innings

Q 10 Find the missing data from following table

Group—1 Group—2 Group 1 and 2


No. of readings 100 ? 250
Mean 45 ? 51
Variance 49 ? 130

Q11 Mean of 10 observations was calculated as 13 kgs and standard deviation as 3 kgs.
It was later found 2 observations 14 kgs and 15 kgs did not belong to that group. Find
correct mean and standard deviation.

Q12 Data regarding wages of a company before and after wage settlement between
management and union are as follows

Before After
No. of workers 2400 2350
Mean Rs 45.5 47.5
Median Rs 48 45
Standard deviation 12 10

Based on above data, answer the following


1. Interpret lower value of median after the settlement.
2. Have wages become more uniform after the settlement?
Q13 Data on items to be transported as follows
Weight 5—10 10—15 15—20 20—25 25—30 30—35 35—40
kgs
No. of 2 10 20 5 5 4 4
items

Based on above data, calculate following


1. Mean absolute deviation from mean.
2. Coefficient of variation

Q14 The mean and standard deviation of 100 readings were found to be 40 and 10
respectively. It was later found that one reading was taken as 30 instead of 3. Find correct
mean and standard deviation.

Q15 Given following data, find missing values,


Group-I Group-II Group I and II
