Answer 3

Group 1 = 20 values

Mean = 85 , Median = 80

Total of 20 values = 20 x 85 = 1700

Group 2 = 30 values

Mean = 75, Median = 72

Total of 30 Values = 30 x 75 = 2250

(a). Mean of 50 values =  (1700 +2250)/50

   Mean of 50 values = 79

(b). As there is no list of numbers, we cannot assume any number as a median for 50 values.

Answer 4

 Refer the Book for

Random Variable ‘X’

 Refer the Book for Relative Frequency Cumulative Frequency

(Add values of column ‘B’)

         A  B A x B  C = A X B       D
0 x 0.18 0 0.18
1 x 0.33 0.33 0.33+0.18=0.51
2 x 0.10 0.2 0.51+0.1 =0.61
3 x 0.06 0.18 0.61+0.06 = 0.67
4 x 0.33 1.32 0.67+0.33 =1.0

Mean of Random Variable ‘X’ = Expected Value = Sum of Column ‘C’

=0 + 0.33 + 0.2 + 0.18 + 1.32

 Mean    = 2.03

The median is the central tendency  which is unaffected by high or low values related to the rest of the data. Here median of a random variable ‘X’ is any number ‘m’ from the column ‘A’ such that

P ( X ≤ m ) ≥ 0.5 and P ( X ≥ m ) ≥ 0.5. This means that at least half the values of X are greater than or equal to m and at least half the values of X are less than or equal to m.

To find the median of random variable ‘X’ just  check  for cumulative values as per column ‘D’.

P(X < 1 ) = P(x=0) + P(x=1) = 0.18 + 0.33 = 0.51

P(X > 1 ) = P(x=1) + P(x=2) + P(x=3) +  P(x=3)  = 0.33 + 0.10+  0.06 + 0.33 = 0.82

So median of random variable ‘X’ is  1.
