Which one of the following statements is not correct with reference to a histogram?
Q2MathsUnit 13: Statistics and Probability
In an experiment with 15 observations on x,x, then following results were available: x2=2830,x=170\sum x^{2}=2830, \sum x=170 One observation that was 20 was found to be wrong and was replaced by the correct value 30.30 . Then the corrected variance is:

Frequently asked questions

What makes a Statistics and Probability question "important" for JEE?

Important questions test core concepts that appear frequently across JEE Main and Advanced papers — definitions, standard formulas, and classic problem types.

Which subtopics in Statistics and Probability are high-weightage?

Key areas include Measures of dispersion; calculation of mean, median, mode of grouped and ungrouped data, Calculation of standard deviation, variance and mean deviation for grouped and ungrouped data, Probability: Probability of an event, addition and multiplication theorems of probability, Baye's theorem, probability distribution of a random variable. Prioritise these before moving to edge cases.

How many important questions should I revise?

Revise 30–50 important MCQs per unit in the last month before JEE. Focus on questions you got wrong at least once.

Can I practise only important questions on Goodmarks?
