Answer 1

Answer:

Apply the formula: - Median = L+(N2−cff)×h, where L = lower class containing the median, N = total student, f = frequency of the class containing median, cf = cumulative frequency before the median class, h = class interval, to calculate the value of x. Substitute this value of x in equation (1) to get the value of y.

Answer 2

$\boxed{\begin{array}{c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c}\bf Class\: interval&\sf 0-10&\sf 10-20&\sf 20-30 &\sf 30-40&\sf 40-50&\sf 50-60&\sf 60-70\\\frac{\qquad \quad \qquad}{}&\frac{\quad \quad \quad}{}&\frac{\quad \quad\quad}{}&\frac{\quad \quad \quad}{}&\frac{\quad \quad \quad}{}&\frac{\quad \quad\quad}{}&\frac{\quad \quad\quad}{}&\frac{\quad \quad\quad}{}\\\bf Frequency&\sf 4&\sf 7&\sf x&\sf 18&\sf 15&\sf 8&\sf 7\end{array}}$

Here, Maximum frequency is 18.

Then, the corresponding class 30-40 is the model class.

$\dag\;{\underline{\frak{Formula\:of\:Mode\:is\:given\:by,}}}$

$\star\;{\boxed{\sf{\pink{Mode = l + \dfrac{f_1 - f_0}{2f_1 - f_0 - f_2} \times h}}}}$

Here,

$\sf Lower\:limit\:of\;class,\:l = \bf{30}$

$\sf Class\:interval,\:h = 40 - 30 = \bf{10}$

$\sf  Frequency\:of\:Median\;class\:,f_1 = \bf{18}$

$\sf Frequency\:of\:preceding\;class\:,f_0 = \bf{x}$

$\sf  Frequency\:of\: succeeding\;class\:,f_2 = \bf{15}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$\dag\;{\underline{\frak{Putting\:values\:in\:formula,}}}\\ \\ \\:\implies\sf 37 = 30 + \dfrac{18 - x}{2 \times 18 - x - 15} \times 10\\ \\ \\:\implies\sf 37 - 30 =\dfrac{18 - x}{36 - x - 15} \times 10\\ \\ \\:\implies\sf 7 = \dfrac{18 - x}{21  - x} \times 10\\ \\ \\:\implies\sf 7(21 - x) =10(18 - x)\\ \\ \\:\implies\sf 147 - 7x = 180 - 10x\\ \\ \\ :\implies\sf  - 7x + 10x = 180  - 147\\ \\ \\:\implies\sf 3x  = 33\\ \\ \\:\implies\sf x  =   \cancel{\dfrac{33}{3}}\\ \\ \\ :\implies{\underline{\boxed{\pmb{\frak{\purple{x = 11}}}}}}\;\bigstar$

$\therefore\:{\underline{\sf{The\:value\:of\:Missing\:Frequency\:(x)\:is\: {\textsf{\textbf{11}}}.}}}$
