Question

Q25. The algebraic sum of the deviations of a frequency distribution from its
mean is always,
(a) greater than zero
(b) less than zero
(c) zero
(d) a non-zero number​
please help me out

Answer 1

Answer:

(C) zero

Step-by-step explanation:

The algebraic sum of the deviations of a frequency distribution from its mean =0

For example-

Let the value be 4,6,9,15,16

∴Mean=

5

4+6+9+15+16

=

5

50

=10

Deviation of 4 from 10=4−10=−6

Deviation of 6 from 10=6−10=−4

Deviation of 9 from 10=9−10=−1

Deviation of 15 from 10=15−10=5

Deviation of 16 from 10=16−10=6

∴Algebraic sum of the deviation(with sign)=(−6)+(−5)+(−1)+5+6=0

Answer 2

hey mate your answer is zero.

I hope it will help you
