Explanation

(a) 

x 0 1 2 3 4 5 Total
f 1 4 9 8 5 3 30
fx 0 4 18 24 20 15 81

(i) Mean(\(\bar{x}\) = \(\frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}\)

= \(\frac{81}{30}\)

= 2.7

(ii) \(N = \sum f = 30\)

\(median = \frac{1}{2}(N + 1)\)

= \(\frac{1}{2}(30 + 1)\)

=15.5

= The 15th and 16th position.

\(\therefore median = \frac{3 + 3}{2} = 3\)

(b) Sectorial angle for the mark 2 = \(\frac{9}{30} \times 360°\)

= 108°.
