Grouped data
Where f = frequency of the variable, μ= population mean.
Example 17
A security analyst studied hundred companies and obtained the following Return on Investment (ROI) data for the year 20x3.
Returns %
0-10
10-20
20-30
30-40
No. of companies
19

We can find how the ROI of the company varies with the mean ROI by calculating the standard deviations for the above data.
The steps involved are:
Find mean for grouped data.
Find deviations from mean for grouped data.
Find squares of the above deviations.
Total the squared deviations taking frequency into account.
Calculate square root.

Thus, the standard deviation for the return on investment is 8.8%.
In such a calculation, we always assume that all the observations in a class interval are located at the mid-point of the class. For example, the first class interval has mid-point 5 and frequency 19. Hence the assumption is that all the 19 companies have an ROI of exactly 5%.
Let X, Y, and Z refer to the three random variables. It is known that Var(X) = 4, Var(Y) = 9, and Var(Z) = 16. It is further known that E(X) = 1, E(Y) = 2, and E(Z) = 4. Furthermor
In 120 tosses of a coin, 45 heads and 75 tails are observed. Is this a balanced coin? Use a=0.05. (Follow the basic steps of hypothesis testing)
The box plot displays the diversity of data for the income; the data ranges from 20 being the minimum value and 1110 being the maximum value. The box plot is positively skewed at 4
Disadvantages The value of mode cannot always be determined. In some cases we may have a bimodal series. It is not capable of algebraic manipulations. For example, from t
