Which one of the following statements is correct ?

0%
Th Standard deviation for a given distribution is the square of the variance.
0%
The standard deviation for a given distribution is the square root of the variance.
0%
The standard deviation for a given distribution is equal to the variance.
0%
The standard deviation for a given distribution is half of the variance.

Explanation

We know

$Variance(\sigma^2)=\dfrac{\sum(x-\overline{x})^2}{n}$

Where,

$\sigma^2$ is variance

$\overline{x}$ is mean

$n$ is number of observations.

Standard deviation

$(\sigma)=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum(x-\overline{x})^2}{n}}$

$\therefore$ We can see, the standard deviation for a given distribution is the square root of the variance.

0%
$4:3$
0%
$3:4$
0%
$9:16$
0%
$12:9$

Explanation

Highest marks

$= 80$
Lowest marks

$=60$

Ratio

$= \dfrac{80}{60} = \dfrac{4}{3}$

Marks scored by Rishi in an examination (out of

$100$ marks) in different subjects are shown by the bar graph given above. Percentage of marks obtained is around

$70$ in which of the following subjects.

0%
Maths
0%
English
0%
Biology
0%
Computers

Explanation

From the bar graph shown in the figure, it can be seen that the marks in English and Computer lie between the scale of 60 and 80.

However, the marks scored in Computer tend to appear

$70$ from the bar-graph.

Thus the correct option is D.

If 25% of the observations in a frequency distribution are less than

$20$ and 25% are more than

$40$ , then the quartile deviation is

0%
20
0%
30
0%
40
0%
10

Explanation

Here

$Q_1 = 20, Q_3 = 40$
Hence quartile deviation of the given frequency distribution is

$=\cfrac{1}{2}(Q_3-Q_1)=10$

Quartile deviation is :

0%
$\cfrac { 4 }{ 5 } \sigma$
0%
$\cfrac { 3 }{ 2 } \sigma$
0%
$\cfrac { 2 }{ 3} \sigma$
0%
$\cfrac { 5 }{ 4 } \sigma$

Explanation

It is fundamental concept that for moderately skewed distribution

$Q.D = \cfrac{2}{3}\sigma$

The median of a symmetrical distribution, whose lower and upper quartiles are 60 and 80 respectively, is

0%
60
0%
80
0%
70
0%
None of these

Explanation

Given, lower quartile

$=60$ and upper quartile

$=80$

$\therefore$ median

$=\frac{\mbox{ lower quartile }+\mbox{ upper quartile }}{2}=\dfrac{60+80}{2}=70$

Variance of the distribution

$73, 77, 81, 85,..., 113$ is

0%
$10$
0%
$160$
0%
$161$
0%
None of these

Explanation

$73,77,81...113$ are in A.P

where

$a=73,d=4$

$\therefore 113=a+\left( n-1 \right) d\Rightarrow 113=73+\left( n-1 \right) 4\\ \Rightarrow 40=\left( n-1 \right) 4\Rightarrow 10=n-1\Rightarrow n=11$

$\displaystyle S=\frac { 11 }{ 2 } \left( 73+113 \right) =1023$

$\displaystyle \overline { x } =\frac { 1023 }{ 11 } =93$

Therefore variance

$\displaystyle \frac { \sum { { \left( x-\overline { x } \right) }^{ 2 } } }{ N } =161$

Number of TV sets sold in the year 1980 is

0%

Explanation

Answer:- Converting the whole pictograph into frequency distribution table-

Year	No. of TV sets sold $\left( in symbol \right)$ $\left( f_i \right)$	Actual no. of T sets sold $\left( f_i \times 500 \right)$
1980	2	1000
1985	5	2500
1990	3	1500
1995	1	500
