Q92
A data consists of n observations : x1, x2, . . . . . . ., xn. If i=1n(xi+1)2=9n\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{x_i} + 1} \right)}^2}} = 9n and i=1n(xi1)2=5n,\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{x_i} - 1} \right)}^2}} = 5n, then the standard deviation of this data is :
A 2
B 5\sqrt 5
C 5
D 7\sqrt 7
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution
i=1n(xi+1)2=9n\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{x_i} + 1} \right)}^2}} = 9n
i=1nxi2+2i=1nxi+n=9n...(1)\Rightarrow \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {x_i^2} + 2\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{x_i}} + n = 9n\,\,\,\,\,...\,(1)
i=1n(xi1)2=5n\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{x_i} - 1} \right)}^2}} = 5n
i=1nxi22i=1nxi+n=5n...(2)\Rightarrow \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {x_i^2} - 2\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{x_i}} + n = 5n\,\,\,\,\,...\,(2)

Performing (1) + (2), we get

2i=1nxi2+2n=14n2\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {x_i^2} + 2n = 14n
i=1nxi2=6n\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {x_i^2} = 6n

Performing (1) - (2), we get

4i=1nxi=4n\Rightarrow 4\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{x_i}} = 4n

\Rightarrow

i=1nxi=n\Rightarrow \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{x_i}} = n

Q93
For the frequency distribution : Variate (x) : x1 x2 x3 .... x15 Frequency (f) : f1 f2 f3 ...... f15 where 0 < x1 < x2 < x3 < ... < x15 = 10 and i=115fi\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{15} {{f_i}} > 0, the standard deviation cannot be :
A 6
B 1
C 4
D 2
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

If variate varries from m to M then variance

σ214(Mm)2{\sigma ^2} \le {1 \over 4}{\left( {M - m} \right)^2}

(M = upper bound of value of any random variable, m = Lower bound of value of any random variable) Here M = 10 and m = 0 \therefore

σ214(100)2{\sigma ^2} \le {1 \over 4}{\left( {10 - 0} \right)^2}

\Rightarrow

σ225{\sigma ^2} \le 25

\Rightarrow

5σ5- 5 \le \sigma \le 5

\therefore σ\sigma \ne 6

Q94
If the mean deviation about median for the numbers 3, 5, 7, 2k, 12, 16, 21, 24, arranged in the ascending order, is 6 then the median is :
A 11.5
B 10.5
C 12
D 11
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Median

=2k+122=k+6= {{2k + 12} \over 2} = k + 6

Mean deviation

=xiMn=6= \sum {{{|{x_i} - M|} \over n} = 6}
(k+3)+(k+1)+(k1)+(6k)+(6k)+(10k)+(15k)+(18k)8\Rightarrow {{(k + 3) + (k + 1) + (k - 1) + (6 - k) + (6 - k) + (10 - k) + (15 - k) + (18 - k)} \over 8}

\therefore

582k8=6{{58 - 2k} \over 8} = 6
k=5k = 5

Median

=2×5+122=11= {{2 \times 5 + 12} \over 2} = 11
Q95
If the mean deviation of the numbers 1, 1 + d, ..., 1 +100d from their mean is 255, then a value of d is :
A 10.1
B 20.2
C 10
D 5.05
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Given numbers are, 1, 1 + d, 1 + 2d . . . . . 1 + 100d \therefore Total 101 number are present. \therefore n = 101 \therefore mean

(x)\left( {\overline x } \right)

=

1+(1+d)+......(1+100d)101{{1 + \left( {1 + d} \right) + ......\left( {1 + 100d} \right)} \over {101}}

=

1101×1012{1 \over {101}} \times {{101} \over 2}

[1 + (1 + 100d)] = 1 + 50d \therefore Mean deviation from mean =

1101{1 \over {101}}
[1(1+50d)+(1+d)(1+50d)\left[ {\left| {1 - \left( {1 + 50d} \right)} \right| + \left| {\left( {1 + d} \right) - \left( {1 + 50d} \right)} \right|} \right.
+......+(1+100d)(1+50d)]\left. { + ...... + \left| {\left( {1 + 100d} \right) - \left( {1 + 50d} \right)} \right|} \right]

=

2d101{{2\left| d \right|} \over {101}}

( 1 + 2 + 3 + . . . . . + 50) =

2d101×50×512{{2\left| d \right|} \over {101}} \times {{50 \times 51} \over 2}

=

2550101d{{2550} \over {101}}\left| d \right|

From question,

2550101d{{2550} \over {101}}\left| d \right|

= 255 \Rightarrow

d\left| d \right|

= 10.1

Q96
The outcome of each of 30 items was observed; 10 items gave an outcome 12{1 \over 2} – d each, 10 items gave outcome 12{1 \over 2} each and the remaining 10 items gave outcome 12{1 \over 2}+ d each. If the variance of this outcome data is 43{4 \over 3} then |d| equals :
A 23{2 \over 3}
B 52{{\sqrt 5 } \over 2}
C 2{\sqrt 2 }
D 2
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Variance is independent of region. So we shift the given data by

12{1 \over 2}

. so,

10d2+10×02+10d230(0)2=43{{10{d^2} + 10 \times {0^2} + 10{d^2}} \over {30}} - {\left( 0 \right)^2} = {4 \over 3}

\Rightarrow d2 == 2 \Rightarrow

d=2\left| d \right| = \sqrt 2
