Now,                     top enclose straight x equals A plus fraction numerator begin display style sum from blank to blank of end style f subscript i u subscript i over denominator begin display style sum from blank to blank of end style f subscript i end fraction cross times h equals 37.5 plus open parentheses fraction numerator negative 21 over denominator 70 end fraction close parentheses cross times 5 equals 37.5 minus 21 over 14 equals 27.5 minus 1.5 equals 3.6

Hence, the average expenditure per family is 36.

Σfi = f1 + f2 + 53

Σfixi = 2730 + 30f1 + 70f2


It is given that :
                                                  

                        15 + f+ 21 + f+ 17 = 100
                                      f1 + f+ 53 = 100
                                             f1 + f2 = 47

Now,                                 

                             53 = 

                             53 x 100 = 2730 + 30f1 + 70f
                             30f1 + 70f2  = 5300 - 2730
                             30f1 + 70f2 = 2570
                             3f1 + 7f= 257
Thus, we have             f1 + f= 47
                                 3f1 + 7f= 257

Multiplying equation (i) by 3, we get 

                                     3f1 + 7f2 = 141 
 and                               3f1 + 7f2 = 257 

Subtracting (iv) from (iii), we get
                              
                                 (3f1 + 3f2) - (3f1 + 7f2) = 141 - 257
                             3f1 + 3f2 - 3f1-7f2 = -116
                             -4f2 = -116
                                f= 29

Putting the value of fin (i), we get,

                          f+ f= 47 
                     f+ 29 = 47
                    f1= 1= 47 - 29
                    f= 18
Henc, f1 = 18 and f2= 29

Here, we have                                    

Here, we have               sum from blank to blank of straight f subscript straight i straight u subscript straight i space equals space 28 space plus space straight f subscript 2 minus straight f subscript 1
                                 
                                   top enclose straight x space equals space 62.8 space a n d space h space equals space 20 space a n d space sum from blank to blank of f subscript i equals 50

It is given that,             sum from blank to blank of f subscript i equals 50

rightwards double arrow                              30 + f1 + f  = 50
rightwards double arrow                              f+ f   = 20

Now,                           top enclose straight x space equals space A plus fraction numerator begin display style sum from blank to blank of f subscript i u subscript i end style over denominator begin display style sum from blank to blank of f subscript i end style end fraction cross times h

rightwards double arrow                           62.8 space equals space 50 space plus space fraction numerator 28 minus straight f subscript 1 plus straight f subscript 2 over denominator 50 end fraction cross times 20

rightwards double arrow                           62.8 space equals fraction numerator 1 left parenthesis 28 minus f subscript 1 plus f subscript 2 right parenthesis over denominator 5 end fraction plus 50 

rightwards double arrow                           62.8 space equals fraction numerator 56 minus 2 straight f subscript straight i plus 2 straight f subscript 2 plus 250 over denominator 5 end fraction
rightwards double arrow                            314 = -2f+ 2f2 + 306 rightwards double arrow  2f1- 2f2 = -8
Adding (i) and (ii), we get            f - f2  = -4
Putting this value in (i), we get    2f1 = 16 rightwards double arrow f = 8
Hence,                                       f1 = 8,   f2 = 12

Σfi = 23 + 5p

Σfixi = 399 + 5p2 + 100p

 

Here, we have                    top enclose straight x equals 18 comma space space sum from blank to blank of straight f space equals space 23 space plus space 5 straight p space and space sum from blank to blank of straight f subscript straight i straight x subscript straight i space equals 399 plus 5 straight p squared plus 100 straight p

Now,                                 top enclose straight x space equals space fraction numerator begin display style sum from blank to blank of end style f subscript i x subscript i over denominator begin display style sum from blank to blank of end style f subscript i end fraction equals fraction numerator 5 p squared plus 100 p plus 399 over denominator 5 p plus 23 end fraction

rightwards double arrow                                     18 equals fraction numerator 5 straight p squared plus 10 straight p plus 399 over denominator 5 straight p plus 23 end fraction
rightwards double arrow                      18(5p + 23) = 5p2 + 100p + 399
rightwards double arrow                      90p + 414 = 5p2 + 100p + 399
rightwards double arrow                      5p2 + 10p - 15 = 0
rightwards double arrow                      p2 + 2p - 3 = 0
rightwards double arrow                      p2 + 3p - p - 3 = 0
rightwards double arrow                     p(p + 3) - 1 (p + 3) = 0
rightwards double arrow                     (p - 1) (p + 3) = 0
rightwards double arrow                      p - 1 = 0 or p + 3 = 0
Since                   p =  1 or  p = - 3 neglected
Therefore,            p = 1

Here, we have                      A (assumed mean) = 100

Here, we have                     sum from blank to blank of f subscript i space equals space 50 comma space sum from blank to blank of f subscript i u subscript i space equals space 2 f subscript 2 space plus space 24 comma space A (assumed mean) = 100
                                          
                                          top enclose straight x space equals space 132 space a n d space h space equals space 40

It is given that                      sum from blank to blank of f subscript i space equals space 50
rightwards double arrow                           f1 + f2 + 32 = 50
rightwards double arrow                              f+ f = 18

Now,                       top enclose straight x space equals space A plus fraction numerator begin display style sum from blank to blank of end style f subscript i u subscript i over denominator begin display style sum from blank to blank of end style f subscript i end fraction cross times h

rightwards double arrow                       132 = 100 + fraction numerator 24 plus 2 straight f subscript 2 over denominator 50 end fraction cross times 40

rightwards double arrow                        132 = 100 + fraction numerator 4 left parenthesis 2 straight f subscript 2 plus 24 right parenthesis over denominator 5 end fraction

rightwards double arrow                       132 = fraction numerator 500 plus 8 straight f subscript 2 plus 96 over denominator 5 end fraction
rightwards double arrow                    132 x 5 = 8f+ 596
rightwards double arrow                     660 = 8f+ 596
rightwards double arrow                      8f = 64
rightwards double arrow                       f= 8
Putting this value in (i), we get

                     straight f subscript 1 plus 8 space equals space 18
rightwards double arrow                f = 10
Hence.           f= 10,  f2 = 8
