The mean of a distribution is the average of the distribution ; it is the sum of observation divided by the count of the observation.

The mean of the frequency distribution is 51.2^oF

The computed mean (51.2^oF)

is greater than the actual mean (50.7^oF)

Given that:

$\begin{array}{cc}{Low\ Temperature(^oF) & Frequency&40-44&2\\45-49&7&50-54&9&55-59&5&60-64&1\end{array}$

First, we calculate the class midpoint.

This is the sum of the class interval divided by 2.

The midpoint of class 40 - 44 is $\frac{40+44}{2} = 42$

The midpoint of class 45 - 49 is $\frac{45+49}{2} = 47$

The midpoint of class 50 - 54 is $\frac{50+54}{2} = 52$

The midpoint of class 55 - 59 is $\frac{55+59}{2} = 57$

The midpoint of class 60 - 64 is $\frac{60+64}{2} = 62$

So, the table becomes:

$\begin{array}{ccc}{Low\ Temperature(^oF) & Frequency (f)&x&40-44&2&42\\45-49&7&47&50-54&9&52&55-59&5&57&60-64&1&62\end{array}$

The mean is then calculated as:

$\bar x = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}$

So, we have:

$\bar x = \frac{2 \times 42 + 7 \times 47 + 9 \times 52 + 5 \times 57 + 1 \times 62}{2+7+9+5+1}$

$\bar x = \frac{1228}{24}$

$\bar x = 51.2$

Hence, the mean of the frequency distribution is 51.2^oF

By comparing the computed mean and the actual mean, we can conclude that the computed mean (51.2^oF) is greater than the actual mean (50.7^oF)

Answer from: amaljiiju5022

The mean of the frequency distribution is 51.7°.

The computed mean 51.7° is greater than the actual mean 50.7° .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given table :

Low Temperature (°F) Frequency Mid -value

Class interval f x fx

40-44 2 42.5 85

45-49 7 47.5 95

50-54 9 52.5 105

55-59 5 57.5 115

60-64 1 62.5 25

$\text{Now, Mean}=\dfrac{\sum fx}{\sum f}\\\\=\dfrac{85+332.5+472.5+287.5+62.5}{24}\\\\=\dfrac{1240}{24}=51.6666666667\approx51.7$

The computed mean 51.7° is greater than the actual mean 50.7° .
