Question

A frequency distribution of the life times of 400 T.V. picture tubes tested in a tube company is given below. Find the average life of tube.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the class- intervals are formed by exclusive method. If we make the series an inclusive one the mid-values remain same. So, there is no need to convert the series into an inclusive form.

Let the assumed mean be A= 749.5 and h= 100.

We have,

Hence, the average life time of a tube is 715 hours.

hope you understand it bro do hardwrok all the best
