## Tamilnadu Samacheer Kalvi 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Statistics Ex 8.3

Question 1.
The monthly salary of 10 employees in a factory are given below:
Rs 5000, Rs 7000, Rs 5000, Rs 7000, Rs 8000, Rs 7000, Rs 7000, Rs 8000, Rs 7000, Rs 5000
Find the mean, median and mode.
Solution:

Mean = 6600
Median:
Arrange in ascending order we get.
5000, 5000, 5000, 7000, 7000, 7000, 7000, 7000, 8000, 8000
The number of values = 10
Median = Average of ($$\frac{10}{2})^{th}$$ and ($$\frac{10}{2}+1)^{th}$$
= Average of 5th value and 6th value
= $$\frac{7000+7000}{2}$$
∴ Median = 7000
Mode: 7000 repeated 5 times
∴ Mode = 7000

Question 2.
Find the mode of the given data: 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 2.1, 1.3, 3.3, 3.1
Solution:
3.1 occuring two times
3.3 occuring two times
∴ 3.1 and 3.3 are the mode (bimodal)

Question 3.
For the data 11, 15, 17, x + 1, 19, x – 2, 3 if the mean is 14, find the value of x. Also find the mode of the data.
Solution:
Arithmetic mean

∴ 2x + 64 = 14 × 7
2x = 98 – 64
2x = 34
x = $$\frac{34}{2}$$
= 17
The given numbers are 11, 15, 17, 18, 19, 15 and 3
15 occuring two times
∴ Mode = 15
The value of x = 17 and mode = 15

Question 4.
The demand of track suit of different sizes as obtained by a survey is given below:

Which size is demanded more?
Solution:
The highest frequency is 37
The corresponding value is the mode
∴ Mode = 40
Size 40 is demanded more.

Question 5.
Find the mode of the following data:

Solution:

The highest frequency is 46
20 – 30 is the modal class
Here l = 20, f = 46, f1 = 38, f2 = 34 and c = 10
Mode

= 20 + 4
= 24
∴ Mode = 24

Question 6.
Find the mode of the following distribution

Solution:
In the given table the class intervals are in inclusive form; convert them into exclusive form.

The highest frequency is 14
Modal class is 54.5 – 64.5
Here l = 54.5, f = 14, f1 = 10, f2 = 8 and c = 10
mode

= 58.5
∴ Mode = 58.5
