Write your Roll No. on the top immediately on receipt of this question paper. 2. All questions carry equal marks. 3. Attempt any six questions in all. 4. Use non-programmable calculator is allowed. PT .Ox Ae ee @ scanned with OKEN Scanner 127 9 2 fa) Define the terms population and sample. Give examples of (i) Finite population and its sample, and (ii) Infinite population and its sample. (b) A variable takes the values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 with | frequencies 1, 5, 10, 10, 5, 1 respectively. | Find: (i) Arithmetic Mean (ii) Variance (iii) Coefficient of Skewness (B,). Also, comment on skewness of the data. {a) Write a short note on ‘histogram'. Which average can be obtained from it? Explain the method of finding out this average from a histogram. Also, write down the formula for the computation of this average for frequency distribution. i @ scanned with OKEN Scanner 1279 8 ation from mean and standard (b) Find mean devi 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, deviation of the series: and verify that the latter is greater than the former. 3. (a) Define kurtosis. How is it measured? Represent the different values of kurtosis graphically. (b) What are the different measures of central tendency? A train runs 25 kilometers (km) at a speed of 30 km/hr., 50 km at a speed of 40 km/ hr., and finally covers the remaining distance of 125 km at a speed of 20km/hr. What is the average speed for the entire distance? 4, (a) Explain the term "dispersion". Describe different measures of dispersion. Which is the best measure of dispersion and why? (b) Define Bowley's coefficient of skewness. What are its limits? What is the value of Bowley's coefficient of skewness: P:1:0. @ scanned with OKEN Scanner 1279 4 (i) If the distribution is symmetrical, and (ii) If 1", 2"¢ and 3" quartiles are 30, 38, and 70 respectively? 5. (a) Define r" moment about mean (p,) and r* moment about origin (1). Express the first four moments about mean in terms of the moments about origin. Express mean and variance in terms of moments. (b) In two sets of variables X and Y with 50 observations each, the following data were observed: >< =10,0x=3, Y=6, oy =2andr(X%Y) =03. But on subsequent verification it was found that one value of X i. e. 10 and the corresponding value of Y i. e. 6 were inaccurate and hence weeded out. For the remaining 49 pairs of values, find the new value of r(X, Y). @ scanned with OKEN Scanner + 4 o Ww relation coefficient. How er diagram to obtain an idea of correlation coefficient? ‘fect of change of origin and scale on the correlation coefficient r(X, Y)? If r(X. Y) >. (a) Define ‘line of regression’, Why are there two such lines? Write their equations. What is the point of intersection of these two lines? (b) What is curve fitting? Find the line of best fit Y = a+ bX to the given set of data: Cys es 9 P.T.0, @ scanned with OKEN Scanner 1279 6 8 (a) The marks obtained by 5 students in Mathematics (X) and Statistics (Y) are (75, 85), (30, 45), (60, 64), (80, 91) and (53, 58). Find the rank correlation coefficient between X and Y and interpret your result (b) State the properties of regression coefficients, Can Y = 10+ 1.2 X and X =-2-0.7Y be regression lines of Y on X and X on Y, respectively? Explain your answer with suitable arguments. (500) @ scanned with OKEN Scanner
