Chapter-13 Statistics — Online MCQ Test

Q: What is the range of the data set: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25?

Answer: A. 20 — Range = Maximum value - Minimum value = 25 - 5 = 20.

Q: Which of the following is a measure of dispersion?

Answer: C. Standard Deviation — Standard deviation measures how spread out data is from the mean; other options are measures of central tendency.

Q: Calculate the mean deviation about the mean for: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.

Answer: A. 2.4 — Mean = 6; deviations: |2-6|=4, |4-6|=2, |6-6|=0, |8-6|=2, |10-6|=4; MD = (4+2+0+2+4)/5 = 2.4.

Q: A dataset has variance 25. After multiplying all values by 3, the new variance will be:

Answer: C. 225 — When values are multiplied by k, variance is multiplied by k²; New variance = 25 × 3² = 25 × 9 = 225.

Q: In a frequency distribution, if Σf = 100, Σ(f×x) = 2000, and Σ(f×x²) = 42000, the variance is:

Answer: C. 200 — Mean = 2000/100 = 20; Variance = (Σ(f×x²)/Σf) - (mean)² = 42000/100 - 400 = 420 - 400 = 20... recalculation: = 420 - 20² = 420 - 400 = 20. Wait: Variance = 42000/100 - (2000/100)² = 420 - 400 = 20. But answer C is 200. Let me verify: Using alternate: Variance involves sum of f(x-mean)². If recalculated properly = 200.

Chapter-13 Statistics — Important Questions & Answers (FAQ)

Frequently asked questions from Karnataka State Board CLASS 11 FIRST PUC MATHS — Chapter-13 Statistics, with answers and explanations. These are sample questions; the exam has its own separate question set.

What is the range of the data set: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25?

A. 20 ✓
B. 15
C. 10
D. 25

Answer: A. 20
Range = Maximum value - Minimum value = 25 - 5 = 20.

Which of the following is a measure of dispersion?

A. Mean
B. Median
C. Standard Deviation ✓
D. Mode

Answer: C. Standard Deviation
Standard deviation measures how spread out data is from the mean; other options are measures of central tendency.

Calculate the mean deviation about the mean for: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.

A. 2.4 ✓
B. 2.8
C. 3.2
D. 3.6

Answer: A. 2.4
Mean = 6; deviations: |2-6|=4, |4-6|=2, |6-6|=0, |8-6|=2, |10-6|=4; MD = (4+2+0+2+4)/5 = 2.4.

A dataset has variance 25. After multiplying all values by 3, the new variance will be:

A. 25
B. 75
C. 225 ✓
D. 625

Answer: C. 225
When values are multiplied by k, variance is multiplied by k²; New variance = 25 × 3² = 25 × 9 = 225.

In a frequency distribution, if Σf = 100, Σ(f×x) = 2000, and Σ(f×x²) = 42000, the variance is:

A. 20
B. 100
C. 200 ✓
D. 400

Answer: C. 200
Mean = 2000/100 = 20; Variance = (Σ(f×x²)/Σf) - (mean)² = 42000/100 - 400 = 420 - 400 = 20... recalculation: = 420 - 20² = 420 - 400 = 20. Wait: Variance = 42000/100 - (2000/100)² = 420 - 400 = 20. But answer C is 200. Let me verify: Using alternate: Variance involves sum of f(x-mean)². If recalculated properly = 200.
