Write any 10 principles of data visualisation.
(a) If X1, X2, X3, ..., Xn and Y1, Y2, Y3, ..., Yn are the variate values of two variables X and Y, and their geometric means are G1and G2, respectively, then geometric mean of (xj/yi); i = 1, 2, ... n will be (G1/G2).
(b) If each value of X is divided by 2 and of Y is multiplied by 2, then b'YX will be same as b.
(a) The mean and standard deviation of a set of values are 25 and 5, respectively. If a constant value 5 is added to each value, the coefficient of variation of the new set of values is equal to 10%.
(b) If (A) = 90, (AB) = 40, N = 150 and (β) = 80 then (αβ) = 30.
The numbers 3.2, 5.8, 7.9 and 4.5 have frequencies Y, (Y + 2), (Y - 3) and (Y + 6), respectively. If the arithmetic mean is 4.876, find the value of Y and write the whole series.
The value of Spearman's rank correlation coefficient of a set of non-repeating values was found to be 2/3. The sum of the squares of difference between the corresponding ranks was 55. Find the number of pairs.
Given the following data: r12 = 0' 8 , r13 = 0.6 and r23= 0.4 then find
(i) r12.3
(ii) r13.2
(iii) r23.1
(iv) R1.23
In a statistical study relating to the prices (in T) of two shares, X and Y, the following two regression lines were found as 8X - 10Y + 70 = 0 and 20X - 9Y - 65 = 0. The standard deviation of X = 3, then find (i) the values of X and Y, (ii) r(X, Y), and (iii) standard deviation of Y.
