Find an appropriate measures of dispersion from the following data:
Daily wages : upto 20, 20-40, 40-60, 60-80, 80-100.
No. of workers: 5, 11, 14, 7, 3.
Answers
Answer:
Variance = 496.41
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of dispersion i am calculating is Variance.
We are given with the following data below;
Daily wages No. of workers (f) X X*f
0 - 20 5 10 50 1296 6480
20 - 40 11 30 330 256 2816
40 - 60 14 50 700 16 224
60 - 80 7 70 490 576 4032
80 - 100 3 90 270 1936 5808
∑f = 40 1840 Total = 19360
Firstly, Mean of data, X bar = = = 46
Variance formula is given by =
= = 496.41
