Description : If m is the mid-point and l is the upper class limit of a class in a continuous frequency distribution, then lower class limit of the class is -Maths 9th
Last Answer : NEED ANSWER
Last Answer : (b) Let x and y be the lower and upper class limit of a continuous frequency distribution. Now, mid-point of a class = (x + y)/2 = m [given] ⇒ x + y = 2 m =x + l = 2m [∴ y = l = upper class limit (given)] ⇒ x = 2 m-l Hence, the lower class limit of the class is 2m – l.
