Case Study Based Question on Statistics
For a particular year, following in the distribution of ages (in years) of primary school teachers in a district :

Age (in years) 15-20 20-25 25-30 30-35 35-40 40-45 45-50
No. of Teachers 10 30 50 50 30 6 4

(a) Determine the class limits of the fourth class interval. 

(b) Find the class marks of the class 45-50. Also determine the class size. 

(c) Write the sum of lower limit of first class interval and upper limit of fifth class interval.

(d) How many primary school teachers are of age more than or equal to 35 years. 


Doubt by Veer

Solution : 

(a) Fourth Class Interval is 30-35
Lower class limit is 30
Upper Class limit is 35


(b) Class Marks & Class size  of the class 45-50

Class Marks (xi)
= [LL+UL]/ 2
= [45+50]/2
= 95/2
= 47.5

Class Size (h)
= UL-LL
= 50-45
= 5 


(c) Lower limit of first class interval (15–20)
= 15

Upper limit of fifth class interval (35–40)
= 40

Sum = 15+40
 = 55 

(d) No. of primary school teachers which are of age more than or equal to 35 years
= 30+6+4
= 40

An angle is 24° less than its complementary angle. . .

Question : An angle is 24° less than its complementary angle. The angles measure is :
(a) 36°
(b) 33°
(c) 66°
(d) 57°

Doubt by Veer

Solution : 

Let the angle be x°
Compelent of x
° = (90°-x°)

ATQ
(90°-x°)-x°=24°
90
°-x°-x°=24°
90
°-2x°=24°
90
°-24°=2x°
66
°=2x°
66
°/2=x°
33
°=x°
x
°=33°

Hence, the correct option is (b) 33°.

If the drops of water are spherical and their diameter is 0.1 cm . . .

Question : If the drops of water are spherical and their diameter is 0.1 cm, 32000 such drops fills a conical glass up to its brim, with diameter equal to height, find the height of the glass.

Doubt by Veer

Solution : 
Diameter of spherical drop (d) = 0.1 cm 
Radius of spherical drop (r) = 0.1/2
=1/20 cm 

For Conical Glass
D=H
2R=H
R=H/2

Volume of 32000 raindrops = volume of conical glass

32000×(4/3)πr³ = (1/3)
πR²H 32000×4r³ = R²H 32000×4(1/20)³ = (H/2)²H 32000×4(1/8000) = (H²/4)H 4×4 = H³/4 4×4×4=H³ H³=(4)³ H=4 cm

Hence, the height of the glass is 4 cm

Factories x4+x2+1 . . .

Questin : Factories x⁴+x²+1

Doubt by Veer

Solution : 
x⁴+x²+1
Adding x² and subtracting x² 
=x⁴+x²+1+x²-x²
=
x⁴+x²+x²+1-x²
=
x⁴+2x²+1-x²
=[
x⁴+2x²+1]-x²
=[(x²)²+2(x²)(1)+(1)²]-x²
=[(x²+1)²-x²] [∵a²+2ab+b²=(a+b)²]
=(x²+1-x)(x²+1+x)
=(x²-x+1)(x²+x+1)

If a2-2a-1=0, then find the value of aa+1/a2 . . .

Question : If a²-2a-1=0, then find the value of a²+1/a²?

Doubt by veer

Solution : 
a²-2a-1=0

dividing both sides by a
(a²-2a-1)/a=0/a
a²/a-2a/a-1/a=0/a
a-2-1/a=0
a-1/a=2 
S.B.S.
(a-1/a)²=(2)²
(a)²+(1/a)²-2(a)(1/a)=4 [∵(x-y)²=x²+y²-2xy]
a²+1/a²-2=4
a²+1/a²=4+2
a²+1/a²=6
