Calculate the mean deviation from the median age.

Solution:

To find the mean deviation from the median, firstly let us calculate the median.

N = 96

So, N/2 = 96/2 = 48

The cumulative frequency just greater than 48 is 59, and the corresponding value of x is 38.25

So, Median = 38.25

EXERCISE 32.7 PAGE NO: 32.47

1. Two plants A and B of a factory show the following results about the number of workers and the wages paid to them

Plant APlant B
No. of workers50006000
Average monthly wages₹2500₹2500
The variance of distribution of wages81100

In which plant A or B is there greater variability in individual wages?

Solution:

Variation of the distribution of wages in plant A (σ2 =18)

So, Standard deviation of the distribution A (σ – 9)

Similarly, the Variation of the distribution of wages in plant B (σ=100)

So, Standard deviation of the distribution B (σ – 10)

And, Average monthly wages in both the plants is 2500,

Since, the plant with a greater value of SD will have more variability in salary.

∴ Plant B has more variability in individual wages than plant A

About RD Sharma

RD Sharma isn’t the kind of author you’d bump into at lit fests. But his bestselling books have helped many CBSE students lose their dread of maths. Sunday Times profiles the tutor turned internet star
He dreams of algorithms that would give most people nightmares. And, spends every waking hour thinking of ways to explain concepts like ‘series solution of linear differential equations’. Meet Dr Ravi Dutt Sharma — mathematics teacher and author of 25 reference books — whose name evokes as much awe as the subject he teaches. And though students have used his thick tomes for the last 31 years to ace the dreaded maths exam, it’s only recently that a spoof video turned the tutor into a YouTube star.

R D Sharma had a good laugh but said he shared little with his on-screen persona except for the love for maths. “I like to spend all my time thinking and writing about maths problems. I find it relaxing,” he says. When he is not writing books explaining mathematical concepts for classes 6 to 12 and engineering students, Sharma is busy dispensing his duty as vice-principal and head of department of science and humanities at Delhi government’s Guru Nanak Dev Institute of Technology.
