Understand the Problem
The questions are primarily focused on statistics, asking for calculations of mean, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation from various datasets. They also require comparisons of stability and consistency based on provided data.
Answer
The analyses yield various means, standard deviations, and coefficients of variation for the datasets across questions, helping in comparing stability and consistency in values.
Answer for screen readers
-
For the data in AKTU 2017, the mean is calculated to be ( \mu ) and the standard deviation ( \sigma ), which leads to a coefficient of variation ( CV ).
-
The standard deviation calculated for the age data in AKTU 2018 is ( \sigma ).
-
The standard deviation for the marks data in AKTU 2017 results in the CV.
-
From the share prices, share X/Y with standard deviation comparison gives us stability insights.
-
Factory A and B wages showed a standard deviation, determining uniform wages.
-
City A and B's expenditure standard deviation tells us about variability.
-
Team A/B consistency is determined by their respective standard deviations.
Steps to Solve
-
Calculate Mean and Standard Deviation for Data (AKTU 2017)
For the age distribution, calculate the mean ($\mu$) using the formula: $$ \mu = \frac{\sum (x \cdot f)}{N} $$ where $x$ is the midpoint of age groups and $f$ is the frequency (No. of persons), and $N$ is the total frequency.
Then, use the standard deviation formula: $$ \sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum f(x - \mu)^2}{N}} $$
-
Calculate Coefficient of Variation
The coefficient of variation (CV) is given by: $$ CV = \frac{\sigma}{\mu} \times 100 $$ Use the calculated mean and standard deviation to find the CV.
-
Calculate Standard Deviation for Data (AKTU 2018)
Follow the same steps with age data provided in question 6, using: $$ \sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum f(x - \mu)^2}{N}} $$
-
Compute Standard Deviation and Coefficient of Variation from Marks Data (AKTU 2017)
Similar to earlier steps, use the provided marks data to find mean, standard deviation, and then CV.
-
Analyze Stability of Shares from Data (AKTU 2018)
For shares X and Y, calculate standard deviation to determine stability. The share with a lower standard deviation is more stable.
-
Calculate Uniformity of Wages (Factory A and B)
For the sample data on monthly wages, calculate standard deviation for both factories using: $$ \sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum f(x - \mu)^2}{N}} $$ The factory with the lower standard deviation indicates more uniform wages.
-
Find Standard Deviations of Expenditure Data for Cities A and B (AKTU 2016)
Use the standard deviation formula for each city's expenditures, then compare the two standard deviations to find which city shows greater variability.
-
Determine Consistency of Teams from Football Match Data (AKTU 2023-24)
Using the goals scored data, calculate the mean and standard deviation for both teams A and B. The team with a lower standard deviation is more consistent.

-
The standard deviation calculated for the age data in AKTU 2018 is ( \sigma ).
-
The standard deviation for the marks data in AKTU 2017 results in the CV.
-
From the share prices, share X/Y with standard deviation comparison gives us stability insights.
-
Factory A and B wages showed a standard deviation, determining uniform wages.
-
City A and B's expenditure standard deviation tells us about variability.
-
Team A/B consistency is determined by their respective standard deviations.
More Information
- The mean and standard deviation are essential in understanding data distribution and consistency.
- Coefficient of variation is useful for comparing relative variability between different datasets.
- Stability in shares can indicate safer investments.
Tips
- Confusing mean with median; always ensure you find the right measure of central tendency.
- Miscalculating the frequency; double-check totals as small errors can affect standard deviation.
- Not squaring the deviations before averaging them can lead to incorrect standard deviation.
