    1. The following table gives the distribution of weekly wages of workers in a factory:

    x 240-269 270-299 300-329 330-359 360-389 390-419 420-449


    f 7 19 27 15 12 12 8

    Calculate the arithmetic mean of the distribution. [Ans: x = 336.7]

    2. Consider the data pertain to first lactation milk yield (in kg) of 100 Swiss cows:
    x 1630-1730 1730-1830 1830-1930 1930-2030 2030-2130 2130-2230 2230-2330 2330-2430
    f 17 19 23 16 14 7 2 2

    Find variance by step-deviation method. [Ans: s2 = 29500]

    3. A set of three similar coins are tossed 100 times with the following results:
    No. of heads 0 1 2 3
    Frequency (f ) 36 40 22 2

    (a) Calculate the mean of the data. [Ans: n = 100; p = 0.3; x = 0.9]

    [Ans: p(x) = x3 (0.3)x (0.7)3−x ]


    
    (b) Use Binomial distribution to estimate the frequencies.

    4. A famous football club recorded the number of goals scored in each one of their 30 matches:
    Goals 0 1 2 3 4 >4
    Frequency (f ) 12 12 4 1 1 0

    (a) Calculate the mean and variance of the data. [Ans: x = 1.6; s2 = 1.5795]
    e−0.9 (0.9)x
    (b) Find the expected frequencies of 0 and 1 goals per match. [Ans: p(x) = x! ]

    5. Consider fitting a normal distribution for the following data:


    Class 60-65 65-70 70-75 75-80 80-85 85-90 90-95 95-100
    Frequency 3 21 150 335 326 135 26 4

    (a) Calculate the mean and variance of the data. [Ans: x = 79.945; s2 = 29.64 ]
    h 1 x−79.945 2 i
    (b) Obtain the normal curve f(x) Ans: y = 5.4441 √2π e− 2 ( 5.444 )

    7. In an attempt to determine whether a relationship exists between the price of a home and the
    number of days it takes to sell the home, a real estate agent collected the following data from
    recent sales in his city:

    Price (in $1000s) 265 225 160 325 430 515 180 423
    Days to sell home 136 125 120 140 145 121 122 145
