Answer:
Here, the assumed mean, a=57 and h=2
Now,
u =1N∑fiuii=17 (where, N=∑fii=17)⇒u =18150=0.12Therefore,Average weight of students, Mean x =a+hu =57+2(0.12)=57.24
Answer:
Mean weight = 57.24kg
Step-by-step explanation:
di = (xi - A)
Class interval Frequency(fi) Class mark(xi) Deviation fi × di
50 - 52 18 51 -6 -108
52 - 54 21 53 -4 -84
54 - 56 17 55 -2 -34
56 - 58 28 57 = A 0 0
58 - 60 16 59 2 32
60 - 62 35 61 4 140
62 -64 15 63 6 90
Here, the assumed mean, A=57 and h=2, Σfi = 150, Σ(fi ₓ di) = 36
Now,
xbar = A + Σ()
= (57 + )
= 57 + 0.24
= 57.24
Hence, mean weight = 57.24kg
