If mode of the following frequency distribution is $\displaystyle 55$, then find the value of $\displaystyle x$. Class : $\displaystyle 0$-$\displaystyle 15$ $\displaystyle 15$-$\displaystyle 30$ $\displaystyle 30$-$\displaystyle 45$ $\displaystyle 45$-$\displaystyle 60$ $\displaystyle 60$-$\displaystyle 75$ $\displaystyle 75$-$\displaystyle 90$ Frequency : $\displaystyle 10$ $\displaystyle 7$ $\displaystyle x$ $\displaystyle 15$ $\displaystyle 10$ $\displaystyle 12$
| Class : | $\displaystyle 0$-$\displaystyle 15$ | $\displaystyle 15$-$\displaystyle 30$ | $\displaystyle 30$-$\displaystyle 45$ | $\displaystyle 45$-$\displaystyle 60$ | $\displaystyle 60$-$\displaystyle 75$ | $\displaystyle 75$-$\displaystyle 90$ |
| Frequency : | $\displaystyle 10$ | $\displaystyle 7$ | $\displaystyle x$ | $\displaystyle 15$ | $\displaystyle 10$ | $\displaystyle 12$ |
Marking-scheme solution
Modal class is $\displaystyle 45$-$\displaystyle 60$
Therefore, $\displaystyle 55=45+15 \times \frac{15-x}{30-x-10}$
\[\Rightarrow x=5
\]
