Answer»

(a) Let the length and breadth of a rectangle are 9 x and  5x respectively.

 In a rectangle, area = length × breadth

720 = 9x × 5x

The probability that a boy will pass an examination is 3/5 and that of a girl is 2/5.Find the probability that(i) both of them passes the examination (ii) at least one of them passes the examination.

Answer»

(i) P(Boy and Girl passes examination) 

= P(B ∩G) = P(B) x P(G) = 3/5 x 2/5 = 6/25.

(ii) P (at lest one of them passes the examination)

= P(A ∪B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A ∩B)

P(B ∪G) = P(B) + P(G) – P(B ∩G)

= 3/5 + 2/5 - 6/25 = (3 x 5 + 2 x 5 -6/25) 

= 19/25 = 0.76.

Following is the distribution of weights of students. Compare their coefficient of variations

Answer»

\(x_i\)\(y_i\)\(x_i-\overline x\)\(y_i-\overline y\)\((x_i-\overline x)^2\)\((y_i-\overline y)^2\)
75-5.4-6.229.1638.44
109-2.4-2.25.764.84
20217.69.857.7696.04
18155.63.831.3614.44
76-5.4-5.229.1627.04
∑xi = 62∑yi=56\(\sum(x_i-\overline x)^2\) = 153.2\(\sum(y_i-\overline y)^2\) = 180.8

We get ∑xi = 62 & ∑yi=56

There are total 5 weight groups

∴ n =5

∴ \(\overline x = \frac {\sum x_i}{n} = \frac {62}{5} = 12.4\)

\(\overline y = \frac {\sum y_i}{n} = \frac {56}{5} = 11.2\)

Also we get \(\sum(x_i-\overline x)^2\) = 153.2 & \(\sum(y_i-\overline y)^2\) = 180.8

∴ \(\overset \sigma x = \sqrt{\frac {\sum (x_i-\overline x)^2}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac {153.2}{5}} = 5.53\)

\(\overset \sigma y = \sqrt{\frac {\sum (y_i-\overline y)^2}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac {180.8}{5}} = 6.013\)

C.V (A) = \(\frac {\overset \sigma x} {\overline x} \times 100 = \frac {5.53}{12.4} \times 100 = 44.59\)

 C.V (B) = \(\frac {\overset \sigma y} {\overline y} \times 100 = \frac {6.013}{11.2} \times 100 = 53.6875\) 

∴ C.V (A) < C.V (B)

Weight of students of class A is more consistent.
