Okay, Shasha, let's tackle this grouped data problem. There's an inconsistency in the first row of the table provided (the given Midpoint (M) and f(M) don't match the frequency (f) or the class interval). I will proceed by calculating the Midpoint (M) for each class interval using the standard formula M=lower limit+upper limit2M = \frac{\text{lower limit} + \text{upper limit}}{2} and then calculate f(M)f(M) accordingly. I will use these consistent values to complete the table and solve the subsequent questions.

C2. Complete the table below:

Step 1: Calculate the Midpoint (M) for each class interval.

  • For 37−3837-38: M=37+382=37.5M = \frac{37+38}{2} = 37.5
  • For 39−4039-40: M=39+402=39.5M = \frac{39+40}{2} = 39.5
  • For 41−4241-42: M=41+422=41.5M = \frac{41+42}{2} = 41.5
  • For 43−4443-44: M=43+442=43.5M = \frac{43+44}{2} = 43.5
  • For 45−4645-46: M=45+462=45.5M = \frac{45+46}{2} = 45.5
  • For 47−4847-48: M=47+482=47.5M = \frac{47+48}{2} = 47.5
  • For 49−5049-50: M=49+502=49.5M = \frac{49+50}{2} = 49.5

Step 2: Calculate f(M)f(M) for each row by multiplying Frequency (f) by Midpoint (M).

  • For 37−3837-38: f(M)=3×37.5=112.5f(M) = 3 \times 37.5 = 112.5
  • For 39−4039-40: f(M)=3×39.5=118.5f(M) = 3 \times 39.5 = 118.5
  • For 41−4241-42: f(M)=3×41.5=124.5f(M) = 3 \times 41.5 = 124.5
  • For 43−4443-44: f(M)=4×43.5=174.0f(M) = 4 \times 43.5 = 174.0
  • For 45−4645-46: f(M)=8×45.5=364.0f(M) = 8 \times 45.5 = 364.0
  • For 47−4847-48: f(M)=4×47.5=190.0f(M) = 4 \times 47.5 = 190.0
  • For 49−5049-50: f(M)=3×49.5=148.5f(M) = 3 \times 49.5 = 148.5

Step 3: Calculate the total frequency (NN) and the sum of f(M)f(M) (∑fM\sum fM).

  • N=3+3+3+4+8+4+3=28N = 3+3+3+4+8+4+3 = 28
  • ∑fM=112.5+118.5+124.5+174.0+364.0+190.0+148.5=1232.0\sum fM = 112.5 + 118.5 + 124.5 + 174.0 + 364.0 + 190.0 + 148.5 = 1232.0

Here is the completed table:

Class IntervalFrequency (f)Midpoint (M)f(M)
37-38337.5112.5
39-40339.5118.5
41-42341.5124.5
43-44443.5174.0
45-46845.5364.0
47-48447.5190.0
49-50349.5148.5
N=28∑fM=\sum fM= 1232.0

Now, using the information from the completed table:

Part a· 3 steps

Mean of the grouped data

  1. Use the formula for the mean of grouped data.

    xˉ=∑fMN\bar{x} = \frac{\sum fM}{N}
  2. Substitute the calculated values.

    xˉ=1232.028\bar{x} = \frac{1232.0}{28}
  3. Calculate the mean.

    xˉ=44\bar{x} = 44

    The mean of the grouped data is 44\boxed{\text{44}}.

Part b

44.75\text{44.75}

Median of the grouped data

  1. Find the median position.

    N2=282=14\frac{N}{2} = \frac{28}{2} = 14

    The 14th value falls in the class interval 45−4645-46. This is the median class.

  2. Identify the components for the median formula.

    • Lower class boundary (LL) of the median class (45−4645-46): 44.5
    • Cumulative frequency before the median class (CFbCF_b): 3+3+3+4=133+3+3+4 = 13 (for class 43−4443-44)
    • Frequency of the median class (fmf_m): 8
    • Class width (ww): 38−37+1=238-37+1 = 2 (or 39−37=239-37=2)
  3. Apply the median formula for grouped data.

    Median=L+(N2−CFbfm)×w\text{Median} = L + \left(\frac{\frac{N}{2} - CF_b}{f_m}\right) \times w Median=44.5+(14−138)×2\text{Median} = 44.5 + \left(\frac{14 - 13}{8}\right) \times 2 Median=44.5+(18)×2\text{Median} = 44.5 + \left(\frac{1}{8}\right) \times 2 Median=44.5+0.125×2\text{Median} = 44.5 + 0.125 \times 2 Median=44.5+0.25\text{Median} = 44.5 + 0.25 Median=44.75\text{Median} = 44.75

    The median of the grouped data is 44.75\boxed{\text{44.75}}.

Part c

45.5\text{45.5}

Mode of the grouped data

  1. Identify the modal class (the class with the highest frequency).

    The highest frequency is 8, which corresponds to the class interval 45−4645-46. This is the modal class.

  2. Identify the components for the mode formula.

    • Lower class boundary (LL) of the modal class (45−4645-46): 44.5
    • Frequency of the modal class (fmf_m): 8
    • Frequency of the class before the modal class (f1f_1): 4 (for class 43−4443-44)
    • Frequency of the class after the modal class (f2f_2): 4 (for class 47−4847-48)
    • Class width (ww): 2
  3. Apply the mode formula for grouped data.

    Mode=L+(fm−f1(fm−f1)+(fm−f2))×w\text{Mode} = L + \left(\frac{f_m - f_1}{(f_m - f_1) + (f_m - f_2)}\right) \times w Mode=44.5+(8−4(8−4)+(8−4))×2\text{Mode} = 44.5 + \left(\frac{8 - 4}{(8 - 4) + (8 - 4)}\right) \times 2 Mode=44.5+(44+4)×2\text{Mode} = 44.5 + \left(\frac{4}{4 + 4}\right) \times 2 Mode=44.5+(48)×2\text{Mode} = 44.5 + \left(\frac{4}{8}\right) \times 2 Mode=44.5+0.5×2\text{Mode} = 44.5 + 0.5 \times 2 Mode=44.5+1\text{Mode} = 44.5 + 1 Mode=45.5\text{Mode} = 45.5

    The mode of the grouped data is 45.5\boxed{\text{45.5}}.

Part d

14\text{14}

Range of the grouped data

  1. Identify the upper class boundary of the highest class and the lower class boundary of the lowest class.

    • Highest class interval: 49−5049-50. Upper class boundary = 50.5
    • Lowest class interval: 37−3837-38. Lower class boundary = 36.5
  2. Calculate the range.

    Range=Upper boundary of highest class−Lower boundary of lowest class\text{Range} = \text{Upper boundary of highest class} - \text{Lower boundary of lowest class} Range=50.5−36.5\text{Range} = 50.5 - 36.5 Range=14\text{Range} = 14

    The range of the grouped data is 14\boxed{\text{14}}.
