Graphical Representation Of Statistical Data:
Through classification and tabulation, we present the data in such a way that the essential characteristics of the raw data become readily under¬stood. The further step in analysis is to represent the statistical data in either of the two ways:

  1. Diagrams
  2. Graphs

Diagrams and graphs appeal to the eyes and mind of every man. This is the reason why newspapers and periodicals represent diagram in advertisements. There are many different methods used to represent data by means of pictures.

Graphs: The important types of graphs are as follows:

  1. Bar Diagram
  2. Histogram or frequency histogram
  3. Frequency polygon
  4. Cumulative frequency curve or an ogive.

1. Bar Diagram:
This is common type of representation used by businessmen and economists. Census uses it to denote population density etc. in different states. If we have to compare simple magnitudes, we use this graphical representation.

As the name suggests, it consists of wide thick lines whose width is not taken into account. It is only the length of the bar which gives comparative analysis. It is for this reason that we call it one dimensional.

2. Histogram or Frequency Histogram:
A histogram is a graph which represents the class frequencies in grouped frequency distribution by vertical adjacent rectangles with class- intervals as bases and the corresponding frequencies as heights.

Drawing of Histogram:
To draw the histogram of a given frequency distribution, we go through the following steps:

  • We represent the class-limits along T – axis on a suitable scale.
  • We represent the frequencies along Y – axis on a suitable scale.
  • We construct rectangles with bases along X – axis and heights of X – axis.

3. Frequency Polygon
A frequency polygon is a graphical representation of a frequency distribution in which the mid-points of the class-intervals represent the entire class-intervals.

MP Board Solutions

Drawing of Frequency Polygon:
When a grouped frequency distri – bution with equal class-intervals is being given, then to draw the frequency polygon, we go through the following steps:

  • We represent the class marks along Y – axis on a suitable scale.
  • We represent the frequencies along Y – axis on a suitable scale.
  • Plot these points and join them by a straight line.
  • We complete the diagram in the form of a polygon by taking two more classes, one at the beginning and the other at the end.

4. Cumulative Frequency Curve or an Ogive:
The cumulative frequency curve or an ogive is a graph of cumulative frequency distribution. To represent an ogive or cumulative frequency curve, we mark the upper class limits along the X – axis and the cumulative frequencies along the Y – axis. Plot the points and join them by a free hand smooth curve. This graph is a rising curve.

Drawing an Ogive or Cumulative Frequency Curve:
There are two types of methods to constructing an ogive or cumulative frequency curve:

  • Less than method
  • More than method.

MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-31
Solution:

1. Draw a horizontal line on a sheet of paper (or graph paper). It is called Y – axis.
2. Leaving little space on the left draw a line perpendicular to the horizontal line. It is called Y – axis.
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-32

3. On the horizontal line i.e., X-axis, mark number of points equal to number of items (in the given question only three) at the equal distances.

4. Write down items (in the given question i.e., mustard, cotton and pulse) on the X-axis i.e., horizontal line below marked points.

5. Show the other variable, after taking suitable scale, on the vertical line i. e., Y-axis. The biggest number to be shown is 10 metric ton. So we take 10 small divisions i.e., 1 cm on Y-axis equal 2000 metric ton.

Measures Of Central Tendency:
An average of a data is the value of the variable which describes the characteristics of the entire data and representative of entire distribution. An average is called measure of central tendency because its values lie between two extremes, largest and smallest observation. The measures of central tendency which are useful for analyzing data are.

  1. Mean
  2. Median
  3. Mode.

1. Mean:
The sum of the values of all the observations divided by the total number of observations.
It is denoted by the symbol \(\overline { x } \), read as x bar.

Example 14:
Find the mean of the numbers 96, 98, 100, 102, 104.
Solution:
Here number of observations are x = 5, and given numbers are 96, 98, 100, 102, 104.

Example 15:
The following table shows the age distribution of cases of a certain disease reported during a year is a particular city.
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-44
Find the average age (in years) per case reported.
Solution:
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-45
Hence, average age per case reported is 34.88 years.

2. Median:
The median is that value of the given number of observa-tions, which divides it into exeactly two parts. After arranging the given data in ascending or descending order of magnitude, the middle value of the observation is called the median.

  • Arrange the given data is ascending or descending order.
  • Find the total no of observations (n) in the given data.
  • In case of odd observation (n)

Median = Value of (\(\frac{n+1}{2}\)) observation
In case of even number observation (n)
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-46

Example 16:
Find the median of the following values of a variable:
5, 10, 3, 7, 2, 9, 6, 2, 11
Solution:
Arranging the data in ascending order, we get
2, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11
Here, n = 9, which is odd
Median = Value of (\(\frac{n+1}{2}\))th term
= Value of (\(\frac{9+1}{2}\))th term = Value of 5th term
Thus the median of given data is 6.

MP Board Solutions

Example 17:
Find the median of the following data:
38, 70, 48, 34, 42, 55, 63, 46, 54, 44
Solution:
Arranging the data is ascending order, we get 34, 38, 42, 44, 46, 48, 54, 55, 63, 70
Here, n = 10, which is even
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-47
Thus, the median of given data is 47.

Example 18:
The following frequency distribution gives the monthly consumption of electricity of 68 consumers of a locality. Find the median.
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-48
Solution:
Here, N = 68. i.e., Value of (\(\frac{N}{2}\))th term = 34
So, median class is 125 – 145,
l = 125, F = 22, h = 20
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-49

Example 19:
Obtain the median for the following distribution:
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-50
Solution:
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-51
Here, N = 130, so Value of (\(\frac{N}{2}\))th term = 65.
The cumulative frequency just greater than 65 is 90 in the table and the variable corresponding to 90 is 4. Hence, median is 4.

3. Mode:
The mode is that value of observation which occurs most frequently i.e., an observation with maximum frequency is called the mode.

Example 20:
Find the mode for the following data:
110, 120, 130, 120, 110, 140, 130, 120, 140, 120
Solution:
Arranging the data is the form of a frequency table
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-52
Since the value 120 occurs maximum number of items, i.e., 4. Hence the modal value is 120.

Example 21:
A survey conducted on 20 households in the following frequency table for the number of family members.
MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.3 img-53
Find die mode of above data.
Solution:
Here, Maximum frequency = 8
The corresponding class interval = 3 – 5
So, for the given table, we have
l1 = lower limit of modal class = 3
h = Class size = 2
f1 = frequency of modal class = 8
f0 = frequency of class preceding the modal class = 7
f2 = frequency of class succeeding the modal class = 2
We know that,
