The following values are calculated in respect of heights and weights of the students of a section of class XI: Height Weight Mean 162.6 cm 52.36 kg Variance 127.69cm2 23.1361 kg2 Can we say that the weights show greater variation than the heights?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Answer. Clearly C.V.(weights) is greater than C.V.(heights).
Weights show more variability than heights.

Hanumappa and his wife Gangavva are busy making Jaggery out of sugar-cane. They have processed the sugarcane juice to make the molasses which is poured into moulds of the shape shown in Figure. It will be cooled to solidify in this shape to be sent to the market. Each mould is in the shape of a frustum of a cone having the diameters of its two circular ends as 30 cm and 35 cm and the height of the mould is 14 cm. If each c m^3 of molasses weighs about 1.2 gm, find the weight of molasses that can be poured into each mould (Take pi=22//7 )
