A Correct answer
Explanation

Ratios 2:3:4:5. M = 2x = 8000, so x = 4000. Total = (2+3+4+5)x = 14x = 14 * 4000 = 56000. Average = 56000 / 4 = 14000.

Suppose a population $A$ has $100$ observations $101,102...200$ and other population $B$ has $100$ observations $151,152...250$. 

Find the difference in their means

  1. $49$
  2. $50$
  3. $51$
  4. $52$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The observations of $A$ are $101,102,......,200$

The sum is $\dfrac{100}{2}[2(101)+(100-1)1]\50(202+99)\50(301)=15050$
Mean is $\dfrac{15050}{100}\150.5$
The observations of $B$ are $151,152,......,250$
The sum is $\dfrac{100}{2}[2(151)+(100-1)1]\50(302+99)\50(401)=20050$
Mean is $\dfrac{20050}{100}=200.50$
The difference is $200.5-150.5=50$

C Correct answer
Explanation

The sum of n arithmetic means inserted between two numbers a and b is equal to n times the average of a and b. Here, n = 50, a = 20, and b = 30, so the sum is 50 * (20 + 30) / 2 = 50 * 25 = 1250.

$11\,AM's$ are inserted between $28$ and $10$ then ${6}^{th}\,AM$ is 

  1. $19$
  2. $\displaystyle 17\frac{1}{2}$
  3. $\displaystyle 20\frac{1}{2}$
  4. $22$

A Correct answer
Explanation

Common difference d = (10 - 28) / (11 + 1) = -18 / 12 = -1.5. The 6th A.M. is a + 6d = 28 + 6(-1.5) = 28 - 9 = 19.
