Frequency is what means how many times the event occurs in the same period.
Correct Answer: 5
Explanation:
Arithmatic mean = sum/members
=> (1x1 + 2x2 + 3x3 + 4x4 + 5x5 + 6x6 + 7x7) / (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7)
=> 140/28 = 5
Correct Answer: 25
Explanation:
Let x be number of houses and y be colors.
on the basis of question
x = 4y+1
x = 5(y-1)
on solving these 2 equations x = 25
Correct Answer: -2
Explanation:
We know that in A.P series
18th term = a + 17d
29th term = a + 28d
But given
a + 17d = 29..........(i)
a + 28d = 18......... (ii)
Solving equation (i) and (ii), we get
d = -1
put d = -1 in any of the above equations and we get,
a = 46
Now, we know 49th term can be written as, a + 48d
putting the value of a and d in the above equation,
a + 48d = 46 + 48(-1)
= 46 - 48
= -2
Hence, the 49th term is -2.
