2. What are the measures of Dispersion? Write their merits and demerits.
3. What are primary and secondary data? Explain the various methods of collection of
primary data stating their relative merits and demerits.
4. Following information relates to scores of 200 students.
Scores 300- 350- 400- 450- 500- 550- 600- 650- 700-

students

Present the above information graphically by drawing (i) histogram (ii) frequency
polygon (iii) ‘less than’ and ‘more than’ ogive.

5. A frequency distribution is given below:

Class 0-10 10-20 20-30 30-40


Interval
Frequency 2 5 15 3
Compute mean, median and mode?

6. The following data relate to salaries of the employees of a factory:


Morning shift Evening shift

Mean salary per 14300 18600


month(Rs.)

Standard deviation(Rs.) 1250 1320

No. of employees 40 30

(i) For which shift the total salary is higher? (in morning)
(ii) In which shift is the variability in salaries greater? ( in morning)
(iii) Calculate the combined mean salary of the two shifts. (16142.85)

7. From the distribution given below, find a) mean b) median c) first quartile
d) third quartile and e) mode.
Class 50-52 53-55 56-58 59-61 62-64
Interval
Frequencies 5 10 21 8 6

8. Find out the missing frequency of the following data


Class interval 0-10 10-20 20-30 30-40 40- 50-60 Total
50

Frequency 8 ? 6 ? 5 9 50

If the arithmetic mean is 25.

9. Calculate Standard Deviation from the data given below :

Size of the 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
item

frequency 3 6 9 13 8 5 4

10. For a distribution of 280 observations the mean and S.D. are found to be 54 and 3
respectively. On checking it was discovered that 2 observations 62 and 82 had been
wrongly taken recorded as 64 and 80 respectively. Calculate the correct values of mean
and standard deviation.
