Note: Answer each question with steps and explanation. Write down the answers on sheet and submit to the school subject teacher.

Data handling involves collecting, organizing, analyzing, and interpreting data. Understanding measures of central tendency and data representation helps us make sense of information and draw meaningful conclusions.

First, let's explore basic concepts of data handling and statistical measures.

1. Define a bar graph.

Awesome! A bar graph uses rectangular bars to represent data visually.

2. What is the mode of the data: 4, 6, 3, 4, 2, 4, 5, 3?

Great job! 4 appears 3 times, more than any other value.

3. Find the mean of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50.

Perfect! Mean = (10+20+30+40+50) ÷ 5 = 150 ÷ 5 = 30.

4. What is the range of the data: 15, 22, 19, 25, 30, 18?

Excellent! Range = 30 - 15 = 15.

5. Define "frequency" in data handling.

Super! Frequency shows how often each value appears in the dataset.

6. Which type of bar graph is used to compare two related sets of data?

That's correct! Double bar graphs compare two related datasets side by side.

7. What is the median of 2, 5, 7, 8, 10?

Well done! The median is the middle value when arranged in order.

8. The marks scored by 5 students are: 12, 18, 15, 10, 20. Find the mean marks.

Brilliant! Mean = (12+18+15+10+20) ÷ 5 = 75 ÷ 5 = 15.

9. What is a histogram?

You nailed it! Histograms show frequency distribution of continuous data.

10. Give an example where data is collected through observation.

Perfect! Traffic counting involves direct observation and recording.

Drag each method to its correct category:

Bar Graph
Mean
Survey
Histogram
Median
Observation
Data Representation
Statistical Measures
Data Collection

Part B: Short Answer Questions (2 Marks Each)

1. The marks obtained by 8 students in a test are: 15, 20, 10, 25, 20, 15, 10, 30. Prepare a frequency table.

Step 1: Identify unique values

Unique marks:

Step 2: Count frequencies

10: appears times

15: appears times

20: appears times

25: appears time

30: appears time

Step 3: Verify

Total frequency = 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 =

Excellent! Your frequency table is complete and accurate.

2. The weights (in kg) of 10 students are: 40, 42, 38, 45, 42, 40, 38, 39, 45, 42. Find the mode.

Step 1: Count frequencies

38 kg: times

40 kg: times

42 kg: times

45 kg: times

39 kg: time

Step 2: Identify mode

Most frequent weight = kg (appears 3 times)

Perfect! 42 kg is the mode.

3. Find the median of: 18, 20, 15, 25, 22, 18, 20.

Step 1: Arrange in ascending order

Ordered data: , , , , , ,

Step 2: Find middle position

Number of values = 7

Middle position = (7 + 1) ÷ 2 = th position

Step 3: Identify median

4th value in ordered list =

Great work! The median is 20.

4. Sports data: Cricket: 30, Football: 25, Hockey: 20, Badminton: 15.

Step 1: Compare values

Cricket: {.reveal(when="blank-22")}Football:

Hockey:

Badminton:

Highest participation =

Step 2: Calculate total

Total students = 30 + 25 + 20 + 15 =

Excellent analysis! Cricket has highest participation with 90 total students.

5. Find the range and mean of the data: 12, 15, 10, 20, 18, 12.

Step 1: Find range

Highest value =

Lowest value =

Range = 20 - 10 =

Step 2: Calculate mean

Sum = 12 + 15 + 10 + 20 + 18 + 12 =

Number of values =

Mean = 87 ÷ 6 =

Outstanding! Range = 10, Mean = 14.5.

Part C: Long Answer Questions (4 Marks Each)

1. Marks of 20 students: 12, 15, 18, 20, 22, 15, 14, 18, 19, 20, 18, 17, 15, 14, 16, 19, 20, 21, 18, 15.

Step 1: Create frequency table

Count occurrences of each mark:

12: time

14: times

15: times

16: time

17: time

18: times

19: times

20: times

21: time

22: time

Step 2: Calculate sum and mean

Sum of all marks =

Mean marks = ÷ 20 =

Perfect! Mean marks = 17, with frequencies correctly calculated.

2. Heights (in cm): 140, 145, 150, 155, 150, 160, 145, 150, 155, 150, 145, 160.

Step 1: Count frequencies

140 cm: time

145 cm: times

150 cm: times (highest frequency)

155 cm: times
