① Consider the frequency distribution table given below which gives the weights of 38 students of a class Weight (in kg) 31 – 35 36 – 40 41 – 45 46 – 50 51 – 55 56 – 60 61 – 65
Number of students 9 5 14 3 2 1 4
1. Find the probability that the weight of a student in the class lies in the interval (46 - 50) kg.
2. Find the probability that weight of a student is more than 50 kg.
② To know the opinion of the students about the game football, a survey of 200 students was conducted. The data
is recorded in the following table:
Opinion Like Dislike
Number of students 135 65
Find the probability that the student chosen at random (i) likes football (ii) does not like football.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Weight (in kg) 31 – 35 36 – 40 41 – 45 46 – 50 51 – 55 56 – 60 61 – 65
Number of students 9 5 14 3 2 1 4
To find:
1. Find the probability that the weight of a student in the class lies in the interval (46 - 50) kg.
2. Find the probability that weight of a student is more than 50 kg.
Solution:
1) Probability of an event is
Favourable outcomes/Total Outcomes
Favourable outcomes for weight (46-50)kg:3
Total students of the class(total outcome):38
Probability that the weight of a student in the class lies in the interval (46 - 50) kg=3/38
2)Probability of an event is
Favourable outcomes/Total Outcomes
Favourable outcomes for weight more than 50 kg:2+1+4=8
Total students of the class(total outcome):38
Probability that the weight of a student in the class more than 50kg=8/38=4/19
Given:
To know the opinion of the students about the game football, a survey of 200 students was conducted. The data
is recorded in the following table:
Opinion Like Dislike
Number of students 135 65
To find:Find the probability that the student chosen at random (i) likes football (ii) does not like football.
Solution:
1) Likes football:
Probability of an event is=
Favourable outcomes/Total Outcomes
Favourable outcomes:135
Total Outcomes:200
P(E)=135/200
=27/40
2)Dislikes football:
Probability of an event is=
Favourable outcomes/Total Outcomes
Favourable outcomes:65
Total Outcomes:200
P(E1)=65/200
=13/40
