JEE Advanced 2023 — Paper 1 — Question 14

Consider the given data with frequency distribution

xi38111054\mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}} \quad \begin{array}{llllll}3 & 8 & 11 & 10 & 5 & 4\end{array}

fi523244\mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}} \quad \begin{array}{llllll}5 & 2 & 3 & 2 & 4 & 4\end{array}

Match each entry in List-I to the correct entries in List-II. The correct option is:

LIST-ILIST-II
P) The mean of the above data is1) 2.5
Q) The median of the above data is2) 5
R) The mean deviation about the eman of the above data is3) 6
S) The mean deviation about the median of the above data is4) 2.7
5) 2.4
  1. Option A:

    (P) →\rightarrow (3)(\mathrm{Q}) \rightarrow(2)$$(\mathrm{R}) \rightarrow(4)$$(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow(5)

    Correct
  2. Option B:

    (P)→(3)(\mathrm{P}) \rightarrow(3)\(Q) →\rightarrow (2)\(R)→(1)(\mathrm{R}) \rightarrow(1)\(S) →\rightarrow (5)

  3. Option C:

    (P)→(2)(\mathrm{P}) \rightarrow(2)\(Q) →\rightarrow (3)\(R)→(4)(\mathrm{R}) \rightarrow(4)\(S)→(1)(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow(1)

  4. Option D:

    (P)→(3)(\mathrm{P}) \rightarrow(3)(Q) →\rightarrow (3)(\mathrm{R}) \rightarrow(5)$$(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow(5)

(P) Mean(xˉ)=12020=6{Mean}(\bar{x})=\frac{120}{20}=6

(Q) Median =(10th +11th ) observation 2=5=\frac{\left(10^{\text {th }}+11^{\text {th }}\right) \text { observation }}{2}=5

(R) M.D. (x‾)=Σfi∣xi−x‾∣Σfi=5420=2.7(\overline{\mathrm{x}})=\frac{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}\left|\mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}-\overline{\mathrm{x}}\right|}{\Sigma \mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{i}}}=\frac{54}{20}=2.7
