p + q = 74 ...(i)
and 7 p - 5 q = 218 ...(ii)(1) 16. Let the number of lines in blue colour wheel be x and
the number of colours in the flag be y.
On putting p = 74 - q from Eq. (i) in Eq. (ii), we get
It is given that:
7(74 - q ) - 5q = 218
Number of lines in blue colour wheel
Þ - 12q = 218 - 518 = - 300

\ q = 25 (1/2)
i.e. x = 8y …(i) (1)
On substituting the value of q in Eq. (i), we get
and, the sum of number of colours in the flag and
p + 25 = 74 Þ p = 49 number of lines in the wheel of the flag is 27.
Thus, we get p = 49 and q = 25 i.e. y + x = 27 …(ii)

\ 7 = 49 and 5 = 25 On substituting the value of x from Eqs. (i) to (ii),

\ x = 2 and y = 2 [Q m a = m b Þ a = b] On putting y = 3 in Eq. (ii), we get
Hence, the solution of the given system of x = 8( 3) = 24 (1)
equations is x = 2 and y = 2. (1) Hence the number of lines in blue colour wheel is
24 and the number of colours in the flag is 3. (1)

Now, = = 34 (1/2)

Since, the sum of all frequency is 170. Since, cumulative frequency just greater than 34 is

So, the median class is 30-40. Also, n = 170 Þ = 85

Also, 110 + f1 + f2 = 170 Þ ( b - c ) ( a - b ) (c - a ) = 0 (1)
[Qsum of all frequencies = 170, given] Þ b=c or a = b or c = a
Þ f 1 + f 2 = 60 Þ 35 + f 2 = 60 [from Eq. (i)] But, it is given that, a ¹ b ¹ c
\ f 2 = 60 - 35 = 25 So, our supposition is wrong.
Hence, the missing frequency of the class 20-30 is 35 Hence, the points ( a, a 2 ), ( b, b 2 ) and (c, c 2 ) can
