Estimate the mode of the frequency distribution above
Estimate the mode of the frequency distribution above
A
13.2g
B
15.0g
C
16.8g
D
17.5g
correct option: c
Mode = a + \(\frac{(b - a)(F_m - F_b)}{2F_m - F_a - F_b}\)
= \(L_1 + \frac{\Delta_1 x^\text{c}}{\Delta_1 + \Delta_2}\)
= \(10 + \frac{(20 - 10)(27 - 10)}{2(27) - 10 - 19}\)
= 10 + \(\frac{170}{25}\)
= 10 + 6.8
= 16.8
= \(L_1 + \frac{\Delta_1 x^\text{c}}{\Delta_1 + \Delta_2}\)
= \(10 + \frac{(20 - 10)(27 - 10)}{2(27) - 10 - 19}\)
= 10 + \(\frac{170}{25}\)
= 10 + 6.8
= 16.8
