Exercise 11.1
Question 1.

Find the range and coefficient of range of the following data.

59, 46, 30, 23, 27, 40, 52, 35, 29


Answer:

Given the set of data 59, 46, 30, 23, 27, 40, 52, 35, 29.


Let the maximum value in the data set be denoted by xmax and minimum by xmin


Range = Maximum value in the data set – Minimum value in the data set


= xmax - xmin


= 59 – 23


= 36


∴ Range R = 36


Let the Coefficient of Range be denoted by s.


s =


=


=


= 0.439≈0.44


∴ s = 0.44



Question 2.

Find the range and coefficient of range of the following data.

Answer:

Given the set of data 41.2, 33.7, 29.1, 34.5, 25.7, 24.8, 56.5, 12.5.


Let the maximum value in the data set be denoted by xmax and minimum by xmin


Range = Maximum value in the data set – Minimum value in the data set


= xmax - xmin


= 56.5 – 12.5


= 44


∴ Range R = 44


Let the Coefficient of Range be denoted by s.


s =


=


=


= 0.637≈0.64


∴ s = 0.64



Question 3.

The smallest value of a collection of data is 12 and the range is 59. Find the largest value of the collection of data.


Answer:

Given xmin = 12, R = 59


Range R = xmax - xmin


Substituting the given terms into the above formula, we get


R = xmax - xmin


59 = xmax - 12


xmax = 59 + 12 = 71



Question 4.

The largest of 50 measurements is 3.84 kg. If the range is 0.46 kg, find the smallest measurement.


Answer:

Given xmax = 3.84kg, R = 0.46kg


Range R = xmax - xmin


Substituting the given terms into the above formula, we get


R = xmax - xmin


0.46 = 3.84- xmin


xmin = 3.84 - 0.46 = 3.38kg



Question 5.

The standard deviation of 20 observations is √5. If each observation is multiplied by 2, find the standard deviation and variance of the resulting observations.


Answer:

Given SD =


Formula for SD =


Where N = 20, SD =


If each observation is multiplied by 2, we get new set of observations.


Let the new observations be y1, y2, y3….y20


New Standard Deviation SD’ =


We know that and


But yi = 2xi


Therefore,


Substituting in the SD’ formula,


SD’ =


=


= 2 × SD = 2


Formula relating SD and Variance is Variance = SD2

Set A : 14, 18, 22, 26, 30 with V = 32


Set B : 28, 36, 44, 52, 60 with V = ?


We notice that each data entry in set B is twice the corresponding data entry in set A.


SD of set B = 2 × SD of set A.


We know that Variance = SD2


Variance of Set B = 22 × Variance of Set A.


= 4 × 32 = 128.


So the correct option is B.
