Make a frequency distribution table for the same.
Answer:
Frequency table of the given data is given below:
Question 2. Construct a frequency distribution table for the following weights (in grams) of 35 oranges, using class intervals 40—45, 45-50 and so on.
30, 40, 45, 32, 43, 50, 55, 63, 72, 73, 62, 61, 54, 53, 50, 43, 76, 38, 54, 55, 66, 70, 74, 75, 45, 47, 59, 58, 60, 63, 74, 33, 35, 70, 68.

Question 6. Suppose you spin the wheel shown in adjoining figure.
(i) List the outcomes of getting a green sector and not getting a green sector on this wheel.
(ii) Find the probability of getting a green sector.
(iii) Find the probability of not getting a green sector.
Answer:
In the spin wheel, 3 sectors are red and 5 sectors are green.
(i) Getting green sector are G, G, G, G, G
and not getting a green sector is R, R, R.
Total number of outcomes = 5 + 3 = 8
(ii) Probability of getting a green sector P(E) = 5/8.
(iii) Probaility of getting a non-green sector P(E) = 3/8
Question 7. A bag has 4 red and 2 yellow balls. A ball is drawn from the bag without looking into the bag. What is the probability of getting
(i) a red ball?
(ii) not a red ball?
Answer:
In a bag, there are 4 red, 2 yellow balls.
∴ Total number of balls = 4 + 2 = 6
(i) One ball is drawn at random.
Probability of getting a red ball = 4/6 = 2/3 .
(ii) Probability of getting not a red ball = 2/6 = 1/3 .
Question 8. Three coins are tossed together, find the probability of getting
(i) atmost 2 heads
(ii) 3 heads.
Answer:
Three coins are tossed together.
∴ Number of total outcomes = (2)3 = 2 × 2 × 2 = 8
(i) Probability of getting at the most 2 heads P(E)
= HTT, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, TTH, THT = 7
= 7/8
(ii) Probability of getting 3 heads (HHH = 1) = 1/8
Question 9. A letter is chosen from the word ‘RECTANGLE’. What is the probability that it is
(i) a consonant
(ii) not a consonant.
Answer:
In the word ‘RECTANGLE’
Total letters (outcomes) = 9
(i) Probability of a letter which is a consonant P(E) = (R, C, T, N, G, L)
= 6/9 = 2/3
(ii) Probability of a letter being not a consonant (E, A, E), P(E) = 3/9 = 1/3 .
