The value of a is 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the mean of following frequency distribution below;
Marks No. of students (f) X
0 - 10 7 5 35
10 - 20 a 15
20 - 30 8 25 200
30 - 40 10 35 350
40 - 50 5 45 225
Total 30 + a 810 +
Now, the mean of the frequency distribution is given by the following formula;
Mean, =
24 =
= 10
Hence, the value of a is 10.
