Page 4: STATISTICS - Testlabz Class IX 4 Question Bank Ans. Frequency distribution to exclusive form of the given frequency distribution is as follows : Class Interval Frequency 29.5 - 34.5

Math Class IX 4 Question Bank

Ans. Frequency distribution to exclusive form of the given frequency distribution is

as follows :

Class Interval Frequency

29.5 - 34.5 7

34.5 - 39.5 9

39.5 - 44.5 13

44.5 - 49.5 6

49.5 - 54.5 3

54.5 - 59.5 10

(i) The true class limits of the fourth class interval is 44.5-49.5.

(ii) The class boundaries of the fifth class interval is 49.5-54.5.

(iii) The class mark of the third class interval 39.5 44.5 84

42.2 2

+= = =

(iv) The class size of th sixth class interval 59.5 54.5 5= − =

Q.8. Find the actual lower class limits and upper class limits of the classes :

10 - 19, 20 - 29, 30 - 39 and 40 - 49. Ans. Classes are 10 - 19, 20 - 29, 30 - 39 and 40 - 49.

Difference between upper limit of one class and lower limit of next class 1=

∴ Adjustment of factor 1

0.52

= =

Subtracting the adjustment factor from the lower limits and adding it to all the

upper limits.

Thus, classes become,

9.5 - 19.5, 19.5 - 29.5, 29.5 - 39.5 and 39.5 - 49.5.

Hence, actual lower limits are 9.5, 19.5, 29.5 and 39.5 and actual upper limits are

19.5, 29.5, 29.5 and 49.5.

Q.9. Find the actual lower and upper class limits and also the class marks of the

classes : 1.1 - 2.0, 2.1 - 3.0 and 3.1 - 4.0. Ans. Classes are 1.1 - 2.0, 2.1 - 3.0 and 3.1 - 4.0.

Difference between upper limit of one class and lower limit of next class.

2.1 2.0 0.1= − =

∴ Adjustment factor of class 0.1

0.05.2

= =

Subtracting the adjustment factor from lower limits and adding it to the upper

limits. 1.1 0.05 1.05− = and 2.0 0.5 2.05.+ =

Thus, classes become 1.05 - 2.05, 2.05 - 3.05 and 3.05 - 4.05.

Hence, actual lower limits are 1.05, 2.05 and 3.05 and actual upper limits are

2.05, 3.05 and 4.05.

In this way class marks are :

Hence, class marks are 1.55, 2.55 and 3.55.

Q.10. Use the table given below to find :

(a) The actual class limits of the fourth class.

(b) The class boundaries of the sixth class.

(c) The class-mark of the third class.

(d) The upper and lower limits of the fifth class.

(e) The size of the third class.

35 - 39 10

40 - 44 12

45 - 49 13

50 - 54 8

55 - 59 4

Ans. The fourth class if 45-49 and next class is 50 - 54

Adjustment factor 50 49 1

0.52 2

−= = =

Thus, actual limits of class 45 - 49 is 45 0.5 44.5− = and 49 0.5 49.5.+ =

Hence, class is 44.5-49.5.

(b) Sixth class is 55 - 59.

Adjustment factor 0.5=

∴ Class boundaries are 55 0.5 54.5− = and 59. 0.5 59.5+ =

i.e. 54.5-59.5.

(c) Third class is 40 - 44

Actual class limits are 39.5 - 44.5

∴ Class mark 39.5 44.5 84.0

42.0 422 2

+= = = =

(d) Fifth class is 50 - 54

∴ Lower and upper limits are 50 and 54.

(e) Third class is 50 - 54

Actual class becomes 49.5 - 54.5

∴ Size of class 54.5 49.5 5= − =

Now, to draw the histogram and frequency

polygon we proceed as :

(i) Draw the histogram for the given data by

taking class intervals along x-axis and

frequency along y-axis.

(ii) Mark the mid-point of top of each

rectangle of histogram.

(iii) Mark the mid-point of immediately lower

class interval (i.e. 0.5-9.5) and mid-point

of immediately higher class interval (i.e.

99.5-109.5).

(iv) Join the consecutive mid-points by

straight lines to obtain the frequency

polygon.
