The table shows the frequency distribution of weights of 80 apples selected at random from a big consignment.

Weightg 110-119 120-129 130-139 140-149 150-159 160-169 170-179 180-189
Frequency  5 7 12 20 16 10 7 3

Draw both cumulative (less than) and cumulative (more than) ogives on a graph paper and determine the median weight of apples from the point of intersection of these two curves.

The annual profits earned by 30 shops of a shopping complex in a locality give rise to the following distribution.

Profit (in lakhs in) more than or equal to  5 10 15 20 25 30 35
Number of shops c.f 30 28 16 14 10 7 3

Draw both ogives for the above data.Hence, obtain median profit.

Draw less than ogive and more than ogive for following distribution giving 400 telephone calls according to their duration in seconds.

Duration (in s) 0-30 30-60 60-90 90-120 120-150 150-180 180-210
Number of calls 25 75 50 25 150 50 25

Hence, find the median of the distribution and verify it by using formula. Also find Q1,Q3,D9,P4 and P40 from graph.
