S solutionqc

Given that total students = 20

So, \sum f_i=20

=> (x+1)^{2}+(2x-5)+x^{2}-3x+x=20

=> x=3,-4

x cannot be -ve 

So, x=3

\bar{x}=\frac{\sum f_i x_i}{\sum f_i}

\bar{x}=\frac{2(x+1)^{2}+3(2x-5)+5(x^{2}-3x)+7x}{20}

Put x=5

\bar{x}=2.8

correct option (4)


Option 1)

3.2

Option 2)

3.0

Option 3)

2.5

Option 4)

2.8
