What is the ale braic sum of the deviations of a frequency distribution?
Answers
algebraic sum of deviations of a frequency distribution about its mean = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
What is the algebraic sum of deviations of a frequency distribution about its mean = 0
Let say n terms are
a₁ , a₂ , a₃ ......................................aₙ
Sum = (a₁ + a₂ + a₃ +....................................+ aₙ )
& Mean = x
=> nx = a₁ + a₂ + a₃ +....................................+ aₙ
deviations of a frequency distribution about its mean
= (x - a₁) + (x - a₂) + (x - a₃) +................(x - aₙ)
= nx - (a₁ + a₂ + a₃ +....................................+ aₙ )
= nx - nx
= 0
Hence algebraic sum of deviations of a frequency distribution about its mean = 0
