Consider the data on x taking the values
0, 2, 4, 8,....., 2n with frequencies
nC0 , nC1 , nC2 ,...., nCn respectively. If the

0, 2, 4, 8,....., 2n with frequencies
nC0 , nC1 , nC2 ,...., nCn respectively. If the
mean of this data is ${{728} \over {{2^n}}}$, then n is equal to _________ .
Correct Answer: 6
Explanation:
Mean = ${{\sum {{x_1}.{f_1}} } \over {\sum {{f_1}} }}$
= ${{0.{}^n{C_0} + 2.{}^n{C_1} + {2^2}.{}^n{C_2} + ... + {2^n}.{}^n{C_n}} \over {{}^n{C_0} + {}^n{C_1} + ... + {}^n{C_n}}}$
We know,
(1 + x)n = ${{}^n{C_0} + {}^n{C_1}x + {}^n{C_2}{x^2} + ... + {}^n{C_n}{x^n}}$ ...(1)
Put x = 2, at (1) we get
$ \Rightarrow $ 3n - 1 = ${2.{}^n{C_1} + {2^2}.{}^n{C_2} + ... + {2^n}.{}^n{C_n}}$
And Putting x = 1 in (1), we get
2n = ${{}^n{C_0} + {}^n{C_1} + ... + {}^n{C_n}}$
$ \therefore $ Mean = ${{{3^n} - 1} \over {{2^n}}}$
According to question,
${{{3^n} - 1} \over {{2^n}}}$ = ${{728} \over {{2^n}}}$
$ \Rightarrow $ 3n = 729
$ \Rightarrow $ n = 6
= ${{0.{}^n{C_0} + 2.{}^n{C_1} + {2^2}.{}^n{C_2} + ... + {2^n}.{}^n{C_n}} \over {{}^n{C_0} + {}^n{C_1} + ... + {}^n{C_n}}}$
We know,
(1 + x)n = ${{}^n{C_0} + {}^n{C_1}x + {}^n{C_2}{x^2} + ... + {}^n{C_n}{x^n}}$ ...(1)
Put x = 2, at (1) we get
$ \Rightarrow $ 3n - 1 = ${2.{}^n{C_1} + {2^2}.{}^n{C_2} + ... + {2^n}.{}^n{C_n}}$
And Putting x = 1 in (1), we get
2n = ${{}^n{C_0} + {}^n{C_1} + ... + {}^n{C_n}}$
$ \therefore $ Mean = ${{{3^n} - 1} \over {{2^n}}}$
According to question,
${{{3^n} - 1} \over {{2^n}}}$ = ${{728} \over {{2^n}}}$
$ \Rightarrow $ 3n = 729
$ \Rightarrow $ n = 6

If the variance of the following frequency
distribution :
Class : 10–20 20–30 30–40
Frequency : 2 x 2
is 50, then x is equal to____
Class : 10–20 20–30 30–40
Frequency : 2 x 2
is 50, then x is equal to____
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
xi = midpoint of class interval
Variance($\sigma^{2})$$ =\frac{\sum f_{i}\left( x_{i}-\bar{x} \right)^{2} }{\sum f_{i}} $
Also, $\bar{x} =\frac{\sum f_{i}x_{i}}{\sum f_{i}} $
= $\frac{30+25x+70}{2+2+x} $ = 25
Given, Variance = 50
$ \therefore $ 50 = $\frac{200+0+200}{2+2+x} $
$ \Rightarrow $ x = 4
Variance($\sigma^{2})$$ =\frac{\sum f_{i}\left( x_{i}-\bar{x} \right)^{2} }{\sum f_{i}} $
Also, $\bar{x} =\frac{\sum f_{i}x_{i}}{\sum f_{i}} $
= $\frac{30+25x+70}{2+2+x} $ = 25
Given, Variance = 50
$ \therefore $ 50 = $\frac{200+0+200}{2+2+x} $
$ \Rightarrow $ x = 4

If the variance of the terms in an increasing A.P.,
b1 , b2 , b3 ,....,b11 is 90, then the common difference of this A.P. is_______.
b1 , b2 , b3 ,....,b11 is 90, then the common difference of this A.P. is_______.
Correct Answer: 3
Explanation:
Let the common difference = d
and ${b_1} = a$
${b_2} = a + d$
${b_3} = a + 2d$
... ${b_{11}} = a + 10d$
Variance = ${{\sum {a_i^2} } \over {11}} - {\left( {{{\sum {{a_i}} } \over {11}}} \right)^2} = 90$
$ \Rightarrow {{{a^2} + {{\left( {a + d} \right)}^2} + ... + {{\left( {a + 10d} \right)}^2}} \over {11}} - {\left( {{{a + \left( {a + d} \right) + ... + \left( {a + 10d} \right)} \over {11}}} \right)^2} = 90$
$ \Rightarrow 11\left[ {11{a^2} + 385{d^2} + 110ad} \right] - {\left[ {11a + 55d} \right]^2} = 10890$
$ \Rightarrow 1210{d^2} = 10890$
$ \Rightarrow {d^2} = 9$
$ \Rightarrow d = \pm 3$
As A.P is increasing so d should be positive
$ \therefore $ d = 3
and ${b_1} = a$
${b_2} = a + d$
${b_3} = a + 2d$
... ${b_{11}} = a + 10d$
Variance = ${{\sum {a_i^2} } \over {11}} - {\left( {{{\sum {{a_i}} } \over {11}}} \right)^2} = 90$
$ \Rightarrow {{{a^2} + {{\left( {a + d} \right)}^2} + ... + {{\left( {a + 10d} \right)}^2}} \over {11}} - {\left( {{{a + \left( {a + d} \right) + ... + \left( {a + 10d} \right)} \over {11}}} \right)^2} = 90$
$ \Rightarrow 11\left[ {11{a^2} + 385{d^2} + 110ad} \right] - {\left[ {11a + 55d} \right]^2} = 10890$
$ \Rightarrow 1210{d^2} = 10890$
$ \Rightarrow {d^2} = 9$
$ \Rightarrow d = \pm 3$
As A.P is increasing so d should be positive
$ \therefore $ d = 3

14 Mar 2026
If the mean and variance of eight numbers 3, 7, 9, 12, 13, 20, x and y be 10 and 25 respectively,
then x.y is equal to _______.
Correct Answer: 54
Explanation:
Mean = ${{3 + 7 + 9 + 12 + 13 + 20 + x + y} \over 8}$ = 10
16 = x + y ....(1)
Variance (${\sigma ^2}$) = 25
$ \Rightarrow $ ${{{3^2} + {7^2} + {9^2} + {{12}^2} + {{13}^2} + {{20}^2} + {x^2} + {y^2}} \over 8}$ - 100 = 25
$ \Rightarrow $ 125 × 8 = 9 + 49 + 81 + 144 + 169 + 400 + x2 + y2 - 800
$ \Rightarrow $ x2 + y2 = 148
We know, (x + y)2 = x2 + y2 + 2xy
$ \Rightarrow $ 256 = 148 + 2xy
$ \Rightarrow $ x.y = 54
16 = x + y ....(1)
Variance (${\sigma ^2}$) = 25
$ \Rightarrow $ ${{{3^2} + {7^2} + {9^2} + {{12}^2} + {{13}^2} + {{20}^2} + {x^2} + {y^2}} \over 8}$ - 100 = 25
$ \Rightarrow $ 125 × 8 = 9 + 49 + 81 + 144 + 169 + 400 + x2 + y2 - 800
$ \Rightarrow $ x2 + y2 = 148
We know, (x + y)2 = x2 + y2 + 2xy
$ \Rightarrow $ 256 = 148 + 2xy
$ \Rightarrow $ x.y = 54

14 Mar 2026
If the variance of the first n natural numbers is 10 and the variance of the first m even natural
numbers is 16, then m + n is equal to_____.
Correct Answer: 18
Explanation:
Variance ${\sigma ^2} = {{\sum {x_i^2} } \over N} - {\mu ^2}$
variance of (1, 2, ….. n)
10 = ${{{1^2} + {2^2} + .... + {n^2}} \over n} - {\left( {{{1 + 2 + 3 + .... + n} \over n}} \right)^2}$
on solving we get n = 11
variance of 2, 4, 6…….2m = 16
$ \Rightarrow $ ${{{2^2} + {4^2} + .... + {{\left( {2m} \right)}^2}} \over m} - {\left( {m + 1} \right)^2}$ = 16
$ \Rightarrow $ m2 = 49
$ \Rightarrow $ m = 7
$ \therefore $ m + n = 18
variance of (1, 2, ….. n)
10 = ${{{1^2} + {2^2} + .... + {n^2}} \over n} - {\left( {{{1 + 2 + 3 + .... + n} \over n}} \right)^2}$
on solving we get n = 11
variance of 2, 4, 6…….2m = 16
$ \Rightarrow $ ${{{2^2} + {4^2} + .... + {{\left( {2m} \right)}^2}} \over m} - {\left( {m + 1} \right)^2}$ = 16
$ \Rightarrow $ m2 = 49
$ \Rightarrow $ m = 7
$ \therefore $ m + n = 18
