Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 60 boys.
To find the median height, we first arrange the class into increasing order of heights and then pick the height of the middle student as the median height.
To find that on the ogive plot, we have to find the mark on the y-axis which corresponds to 30 boys and that would be the point 6 on the y-axis.
Thus, the point on the x-axis which corresponds to the point 6 on the y-axis is the median height.
We find that the number 6 on the y-axis corresponds to somewhere between 29 and 30 on the x-axis.
That means, the median height range is 145−150cm.
This is shown on the graph attached.
Given :
Height (in cm)140-145 145-150 150-155 155-160 160-165 165-170
Frequency 5 15 25 30 15 10
To Find : value of median height
(a) 145.67 cm
(b) 157.67 cm
(c) 155.83 cm
(d) 159.67 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Height (in cm) F CF d = (mean - 157.5)/5 df
140-145 5 5 -3 -15
145-150 15 20 -2 -30
150-155 25 45 -1 -25
155-160 30 75 0 0
160-165 15 90 1 15
165-170 10 100 2 20
100 - 35
100/2 = 50
upper limit of the median class 160
Median = 155 + 5 x ( 50 - 45)/30
= 155 + 0.83
= 155.83
value of median height 155.83 cm
MAX F = 30
lower limit of modal class 155
Mode = 155 + 5 ( 30 - 25)/(30 - 25 + 30 - 15)
= 155 + 25/ 20
=155 + 1.25
= 156.25
mean height = 157.5 + 5 x (-35)/100
= 157.5 - 1.75
= 155.75 cm
