Question 6.
The mean and variance of 5 observations are 3 and 2 respectively. If three of the five observations are 1, 3, and 5, find the values of the other two observations.
Solution:

Maharashtra-Board-11th-Commerce-Maths-Solutions-Chapter-2-Measures-of-Dispersion-Ex-2.2-Q6.1
∴ (x 4 – 4)(x 4 – 2) = 0
∴ x 4 = 4 or x 4 = 2
From (i), we get
x 5 = 2 or x 5 = 4
∴ The two numbers are 2 and 4.

Question 7.
Obtain standard deviation for the following data:

Question 8.
The following distribution was obtained by change of origin and scale of variable X.
Maharashtra-Board-11th-Commerce-Maths-Solutions-Chapter-2-Measures-of-Dispersion-Ex-2.2-Q8
If it is given that mean and variance are 59.5 and 413 respectively, determine actual class intervals.
Solution:
Here, Mean = \(\bar{x}\) = 59.5, and
Var(X) = σ 2 = 413
Let x i be a mid value of class and
d = \(\frac{x-a}{h}\), where a is assumed mean and h is class width.
We prepare the following table for calculation of mean and variance of d i .
Maharashtra-Board-11th-Commerce-Maths-Solutions-Chapter-2-Measures-of-Dispersion-Ex-2.2-Q8.1
Maharashtra-Board-11th-Commerce-Maths-Solutions-Chapter-2-Measures-of-Dispersion-Ex-2.2-Q8.2
Now, Var(X) = h 2 . Var(D)
∴ 413 = h 2 × 4.13
∴ h 2 = 100
∴ h = 10
Substituting h = 10 in (i), we get
-0.1 × 10 + a = 59.5
∴ -1 + a = 59.5
∴ a = 59.5 + 1
∴ a = 60.5
We prepare the following table to determine actual class intervals for corresponding values of d i .
Maharashtra-Board-11th-Commerce-Maths-Solutions-Chapter-2-Measures-of-Dispersion-Ex-2.2-Q8.3
∴ The actual class intervals are 15.5 – 25.5, 25.5 – 35.5, …….., 95.5 – 105.5
