Punjab State Board PSEB 10th Class Maths Book Solutions Chapter Statistics Ex 14.1 Textbook Exercise Questions and Answers.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 14 Statistics Ex 14.1

Question 1.
A survey was conducted by a group of students as a part of their enviroment awareness programme, in which they collected the following data regarding the number of plants in 20 houses in a locality. Find the mean number of plants per house.

Which method did you use for finding the mean, and why?
Solution:
Since, number of plants and houses are small in their values; so we must use direct method

Mean X = \(\overline{\mathrm{X}}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} x_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}\)

\(\frac{162}{20}\) = 8.1

Hence, mean number of plants per house is 8.1.

Question 2.
Consider the following distribution of daily wages of 50 workers of a factory.

Find the mean daily wages of the workers of the factory by using an appropriate method.
Solution:

From given data,
Assumed Mean (a) = 150
and width of the class (h) = 20
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}\)
= \(\frac{-12}{50}\) = – 0.24

Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
= 150 + (20) (- 0.24)
= 150 – 4.8 = 145.2
Hence,mean daily wages of the workers of factory is ₹ 145.20.

Question 3.
The following distribution shows the daily pocket allowance of children of a locality. The mean pocket allowance is 18. Find the missing frequency f.

Solution;

From the above data,
Assumed mean (a) = 18
Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+\frac{\sum f_{i} d_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}\)

\(\bar{X}=18+\frac{2 f-40}{44+f}\)
But. Mean of data \((\bar{x})\) = 18 …(Given)
∴ 18 = 18 + \(\frac{2 f-40}{44+f}\)
or \(\frac{2 f-40}{44+f}\) = 18 – 18 = 0
or 2f – 40 = 0
or 2f = 40
or f = \(\frac{40}{2}\) = 20
Hence, missing frequency f is 20.

Question 4.
Thirty women were examined in a hospital by a doctor and the number of heart beats per minute were recorded and summarised as follows. Find the mean heart beats per minute for these women, choosing a suitable method.

Solution:

From above data,
Assumed Mean (a) = 75.5
Width of Class (h) = 3
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\sum f_{i} u_{i}}{\sum f_{i}}\)
= \(\frac{4}{30}\) (approx.)
Using formula,
Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
= 75.5 + 3 (0.13) = 75.5 + 0.39
\(\overline{\mathrm{X}}\) = 75.89
Hence, mean heart beats per minute for women is 75.89.

Question 5.
In a retail market, fruit vendors were selling mangoes kept in packing boxes. These boxes contained varying number mangoes. The following was the distribution of mangoes according to the number of boxes.

Find the mean number of mangoes kept in a packing box. Which method of finding the mean did you choose?
Solution:
Since, values of number of mamgoes and number of boxes are large numerically. So, we must use step-deviation method.

From above data,
Assumed Mean (a) = 57
Width of class (h) = 3
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\sum f_{i} u_{i}}{\sum f_{i}}\)

\(\bar{u}=\frac{25}{400}\) = 0.0625

Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 57 + 3(0.0625)
= 57 + 0.1875 = 57.1875 = 57.19.
Hence, mean number of mangoes kept in a packing box is 57.19.

Question 6.
The table below shows the daily expenditure on food of 25 households in a locality.

Find the mean daily expenditure on food by a suitable method.

Solution:

From above data,
Assumed mean (a) = 225
Width of class (h) = 50
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}\)

\(\bar{u}=-\frac{7}{25}\) = 0.28
Using formula,
Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 225 + 50 (- 0.28)
\(\bar{X}\) = 225 – 14
\(\bar{X}\) = 211
Hence, mean daily expenditure on food is ₹ 211.

Question 7.
To find out the concentration of SO₂ in the air (in parts per million, e., ppm), the data was collected for 30 localities in a certain city and is presented below:

Find the mean concentration of SO₂ in the air.
Solution:

From above data,
Assumed mean (a) = 0.10
Width of class (h) = 0.04
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}\)

\(\bar{u}=-\frac{1}{30}\) = – 0.33(approx.)
Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 0.10 + 0.04 (- 0.33)
= 0.10 – 0.0013 = 0.0987 (approx.)
Hence, mean concentration of SO₂ in the air is 0.0987 ppm.

Question 8.
A class teacher has the folloing absentee record of 40 students of a class for the whole term. Find the mean number of days a student was absent.

Solution:

From above data,
Assumed Mean (a) = 17
Using formula, Mean(\(\bar{X}\)) = a + \(\frac{\Sigma f_{i} d_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 17 + \(-\frac{181}{40}\)
= 17 – 4.52 = 12.48.
Hence, mean 12.48 number of days a student was absent.

Question 9.
The following table gives the literacy rate (in percentage) of 35 citIes. Find the mean literacy rate.

Solution:

From the above data,
Assumed Mean (a) = 70
Width of class (h) = 10
∴ \(\bar{u}=\frac{\Sigma f_{i} u_{i}}{\Sigma f_{i}}=\frac{-2}{35}\) = – 0.057

Using formula, Mean \((\overline{\mathrm{X}})=a+h \bar{u}\)
\(\bar{X}\) = 70 + 10 (- 0.057)
= 70 – 0.57 = 69.43
Hence, mean literacy rate is 69.43%.

PSEB Solutions for Class 8 Maths Chapter 13 Direct and Inverse Proportions Ex 13.1

1. Following are the car parking charges near a railway station upto:

Check if the parking charges are in direct proportion to the parking time.
Solution:
Here, ratio of parking charges and parking time are as follow:

Parking time	Parking charges	Parking charge / Parking time
4 hours	₹ 60	\(\frac{60}{4}=\frac{15}{1}\)
8 hours	₹ 100	\(\frac{100}{8}=\frac{25}{2}\)
12 hours	₹ 140	\(\frac{140}{12}=\frac{35}{3}\)
24 hours	₹ 180	\(\frac{180}{24}=\frac{15}{2}\)

Here, \(\frac {15}{1}\) ≠ \(\frac {25}{2}\) ≠ \(\frac {35}{3}\) ≠ \(\frac {15}{2}\)
Thus, the parking charges are not in direct proportion to the parking time.

2. A mixture of paint is prepared by mixing 1 part of red pigments with 8 parts of base. In the following table, find the parts of base that need to be added:
Solution:

Parts of red pigment	1	4	7	12	20
Parts of base	8	…	…	…	…

If parts of red pigment are x₁, x₂, x₃, x₄ and x₅ respectively, then parts of base are y₁, y₂, y₃, y₄ and y₅ respectively. Here, it is clear that mixture preparation is in direct proportion.

Thus, the table is

Parts of red pigment	1	4	7	12	20
Parts of base	8	32	56	96	160

3. In Question 2 above, if 1 part of a red pigment requires 75 ml of base, how much red pigment should we mix with 1800 ml of base?
Solution:
See as per question 2 –
x₁ = 1, y₁ = 75, x₂ = ? and yx₂ = 1800
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{1}{75}=\frac{x_{2}}{1800}\)
∴ x₂ = \(\frac{1 \times 1800}{75}\)
∴ x₂ = 24
Thus, 24 ml of red pigment should be mixed with 1800 ml of base.

4. A machine in a soft drink factory fills 840 bottles in six hours. How many bottles will it fill in five hours?
Solution:
Let the number of bottles filled by machine in 5 h be x.

Number of hours (x)	6	5
Number of bottles filled (y)	840	?

Here, as the number of hours decreases, the number of bottles filled will also decrease.
∴ It is case of direct proportion.
Here, x₁ = 6, y₁ = 840, x₂ = 5 and y₂ = ?
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{6}{840}=\frac{5}{y_{2}}\)
∴ y₂ = \(\frac{5 \times 840}{6}\)
∴ y₂ = 700
Thus, 700 bottles will be filled in 5 hours.

5. A photograph of a bacteria enlarged 50,000 times attains a length of 5 cm as shown in the diagram. What is the actual length of the bacteria? If the photograph is enlarged 20,000 times only, what would be its enlarged length?
Solution:

Enlargement in picture of bacteria	Length (cm)
50,000 times enlarged (x1)	5 (y1)
1 (x2)	? (y2)

Here, length of bacteria increases as picture of bacteria enlarges.
∴ It is case of, direct proportion.

Hence, the actual length of bacteria is 10^-4 cm.
Now, the photograph is enlarged 20,000 times.

Enlargement in picture of bacteria	Length (cm)
50,000 times enlarged (x1)	5 (y1)
20,000 times enlarged (x1)	? (y2)

∴ \(\frac{50,000}{5}=\frac{20,000}{y_{2}}\)
∴ y₂ = \(\frac{20,000 \times 5}{50000}\)
∴ y₂ = 2
Thus, its enlarged length would be 2 cm.

6. In a model of a ship, the mast is 9 cm high, while the mast of the actual ship is 12 m high. If the length of the ship is 28 m, how long is the model ship?
Solution:

–	Actual ship	Model ship
Length of the ship x	28 m	?
Height of mast y	12m	9 cm

This is a case of direct proportion.
x₁ = 28, y₁ = 12, x₂ = ?, y₂ = 9
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{28}{12}=\frac{x_{2}}{9}\)
∴ x₂ = \(\frac{28 \times 9}{12}\)
∴ x₂ = 21
Thus, the length of model ship is 21 cm.

7. Suppose 2 kg of sugar contains 9 × 10⁶ crystals. How many sugar crystals are there in

Question (i)
5 kg of sugar?
Solution:

Weight of sugar (kg) x	Number of sugar crystals y
x1 = 2	y1 = 9 × 106
x2 = 5	y2 = (?)

This is a case of direct proportion.

Thus, there are 2.25 × 10⁷ crystals of sugar in 5 kg of sugar.

Question (ii)
1.2kg of sugar?
Solution:

Weight of sugar (kg) x	Number of sugar crystals y
x1 = 2	y1 = 9 × 106
x2 = 1.2	y2 = (?)

Here. x₁ = 2, x₁ = 9 × 10⁶, x² = 1.2, y² = ?
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{2}{9 \times 10^{6}}=\frac{1.2}{y_{2}}\)
∴ y₂ = \(\frac{1.2 \times 9 \times 10^{6}}{2}\)
∴ y₂ = 0.6 × 9 × 10⁶
∴ y₂ = 5.4 × 10⁶
Thus, there are 5.4 × 10⁶ crystals of sugar in 1.2 kg of sugar.

8. Rashmi has a road map with a scale of 1 cm representing 18 km. She drives on a road for 72 km. What would be her distance covered in the map?
Solution:

Actual distance (km) x	Distance on the map (cm) y
x1 = 18	y1 = 1
x2 = 72	y2 = (?)

This is a case of direct proportional.
Here, x₁ = 18 km, y₁ = 1 cm, x₂ = 72 km, y₂ = ?
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{18}{1}=\frac{72}{y_{2}}\)
∴ y₂ = \(\frac{72 \times 1}{18}\)
∴ y₂ = 4
Thus, the distance covered by her on the map is 4 cm.

9. A 5 m 60 cm high vertical pole casts a shadow 3 m 20 cm long. Find at the same time

Question (i)
the length of the shadow cast by another pole 10 m 50 cm high
Solution:

Height of vertical pole x	Length of shadow y
x1 = 5 m 60 cm = 560 cm	y1 = 3 m 20 cm = 320 cm
x2 = 10 m 50 cm = 1050 cm	y2 = (?)

This is a case of direct proportionality.

Thus, the length of the shadow cast by another pole is 6 m.

Question (ii)
the height of a pole which casts a shadow 5 m long.
Solution:

Height of vertical pole x	Length of shadow y
x1 = 560 cm	y1 = 320 cm
x2 = (?)	y2 = 5 m = 500 cm

x₁ = 560, y₁ = 320, x₂ = ?, y₂ = 500
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{560}{320}=\frac{x_{2}}{500}\)
∴ x₂ = \(\frac{560 \times 500}{320}\)
∴ x₂ = 875 cm
∴ x₂ = 8.75 cm
Thus, the height of the pole is 8,75 m.

10. A loaded truck travels 14 km in 25 minutes. If the speed remains the same, how far can it travel in 5 hours?
Solution:

Distance (km) x	Time (minute) y
x1= 14	y1 = 25
x2 = (?)	y2 = 5 hours = 300

This is a case of direct proportion.
∴ Here, x₁ = 14, y₁ = 25, x₂ = ?, y₂ = 300
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{14}{25}=\frac{x_{2}}{300}\)
∴ x₂ = \(\frac{14 \times 300}{25}\)
∴ x₂ = 168
Thus, loaded truck can travel 168 km in 5 h.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 13 Surface Areas and Volumes Ex 13.5

Question 1.
A copper wire 3 mm in diameter is wound about a cylinder whose length is 12 cm, and diameter 10 cm, so as to cover the curved surface of the cylinder. Find the length and mass of the wire, assuming the density of copper to 8.88 g per cm³.
Solution:
Diametcr of wire (d) = 3 mm
∴ Radius of wire (r) = \(\frac{3}{2}\) mm = \(\frac{3}{20}\) cm

Diameter of cylinder = 10 cm
Radius of cylinder (R) = 5 cm
Height of cylinder (H) = 12 cm
Circumference of cylinder = length of wire used in one turn
2πR = length of wire used in one turn
2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 5 = length of wire used in one turn
\(\frac{220}{7}\) = length of wire used in one turn
Number of turn used = \(\frac{\text { Height of cylinder }}{\text { Diameter of wire }}\)
= \(\frac{12 \mathrm{~cm}}{3 \mathrm{~mm}}=\frac{12}{3} \times 10\) [1 mm = \(\frac{1}{10}\) cm]
= \(\frac{120}{3}\) = 40

∴ length of wire used = Number of turns × length of wire used in one turn
H = 40 × \(\frac{220}{7}\) = 1257.14 cm
Volume of wire used = πr²H
= \(\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{3}{20} \times \frac{3}{20} \times 1257.14\) = 88.89 cm³
Mass of 1 cm³ = 8.88 gm
Mass of 88.89 cm³ = 8.88 × 88.89 = 789.41 gm
Hence, length of wire is 1257.14 cm
and mass of wire is 789.41 gm.

Question 2.
A right triangle, whose sides are 3 cm and 4 cm (other than hypotenuse) is made to revolve about its hypotenuse. Find the volume and surface area the double cone so formed. (Choose value of t as found
appropriate.)
Solution:
Let ∆ABC be the right triangle right angled at A whose sides AB and AC measure 3 cm and 4 cm respectively.
The length of the side BC (hypotenuse) = \(\sqrt{3^{2}+4^{2}}=\sqrt{9+16}\) = 5 cm
Here, AO (or A’O) is the radius of the common base of the double cone formed revolving the right triangle about BC.
Height of the cone BAA’ is BO and slant height is 3 cm.
Height of the cone CAA’ is CO and slant height is 4 cm.
Now, ∆AOB ~ ∆CAB (AA similarity)

∴ \(\frac{\mathrm{AO}}{4}=\frac{3}{5}\)

⇒ AO = \(\frac{4 \times 3}{5}=\frac{12}{5}\) cm

Also \(\frac{\mathrm{BO}}{3}=\frac{3}{5}\)

⇒ BO = \(\frac{\mathrm{BO}}{3}=\frac{3}{5}\) cm
Thus CO = BC – OB
= 5 – \(\frac{9}{5}\) = \(\frac{16}{5}\) cm
Now, Volume of double cone = [Volume of Cone ABA’] + [Volume of cone ACA’]

∴ Volume of double cone = 30 cm³.
Also, surface area of double cone = [Surface area of Cone ABA’] + [surface area of Cone ACA’]
= π .AO.AB + π. AO.A’C
= \(\left(\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{12}{5} \times 3\right)+\left(\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{12}{5} \times 4\right)\)

= \(\left(\frac{792}{35} \times \frac{1056}{35}\right)\)
= \(\frac{1848}{35}\) = 52.75 cm²

Question 3.
A cistern, Internally measuring 150 cm × 120 cm × 110 cm, has 129600 cm3 of water in it. Porous bricks are placed in the water until the cistern is full to the brim. Each brick absorbs one-seventeenth of its own volume of water. How many bricks can be put in without the water overflowing, each brick being 22.5 cm × 7.5 cm × 6.5 cm?
Solution:
Volume of one brick = 22.5 × 7.5 × 6.5 cm³ = 1096.87 cm³
Volume of cistern = 150 × 120 × 110 cm³ = 1980000 cm³
Let number of bricks used = n
Total volume of n bricks = n (volume of one brick) = n [1096.871] cm³
Volume of water = 129600 cm³
Volume of water available for bricks = 1980000 – 129600 = 1850400 cm³

Each bricks absorb \(\frac{1}{17}\)th of its volume in water
Volume of water available for bricks = \(\frac{17}{16}\) × volume of water available for bricks
= \(\frac{17}{10}\) × 1850400
Volume of water available for bricks = 1966050 cm³
Total volume of n bricks = Volume of water available for bricks
n[1096.87] cm³ = 1966050 cm³

n = \(\frac{1966050}{1096.87}\)
n = 1792.42
Hence, Number of bricks used = 1792.

Question 4.
In one fortnight of a given month, there was a rainfall of 10 cm in a river valley. If the area of the valley is 97280 km², show that the total rainfall was approximately equivalent to the addition to the normal water of three rivers each 1072 km long, 75 m wide and 3 m deep.
Solution:
Area of valley = 97280 km²
Rainfall in valley = 10 cm
∴ Volume of total rainfall = 97280 × \(\frac{10}{100}\) × \(\frac{1}{1000}\) km³
= 9.728 km³

Question 5.
An oil funnel made of tin sheet consists of a cylindrical portion 10 cm long attached to a frust.un of a cone. if the total height is 22 cm, diameter of the cylindrical portion is 8 cm and the diameter of the top of the funnel is 18 cm, find the area of the tin sheet required to make the funnel.

Solution:
Diameter of top of funnel = 18 cm
∴ Radius of top of funnel (R) = \(\frac{18}{2}\) cm = 9 cm
Diameter of bottom of funnel = 8 cm
Radius of bottom of funnel (r) = 4 cm
Height of cylindrical portion (h) = 10 cm
Height of frustum (H) = (22 – 10) = 12 cm
Slant height of frustum (l)
= \sqrt{\mathrm{H}^{2}+(\mathrm{R}-r)^{2}}\(\)

= \(\sqrt{(12)^{2}+(9-4)^{2}}\)

= \(\sqrt{144+(5)^{2}}\)

= \(\sqrt{144+25}\) = \(\sqrt{169}\)
Slant height of frustum (l) = 13 cm
Area of metal sheet required curved
surface area of cylindrical base + curved surface of frustum = 2πrh + πL [R + r]
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 4 × 10 + \(\frac{212}{7}\) × 13 [9 + 4] cm²
= 251.42 + 531.14 = 782.56 cm²

Question 6.
Derive the formula for the curved surface area and total surface area of a frustum of a cone, given to you in Section 13.5, using the symbols as explamed.
Solution:
A frustum of a right circular cone has two unequal flat circular bases and a curved surface. Let ACDB be the frustum of the cone obtained by removing the portion VCÐ. The line-segment OP joining the centres of two bases is called the height of the frustum. Each of the line-segments AC and BD of frustum ACDB is called its slant height.

Let R and r be the radii of the circular end faces (R > r) of the frustum ACDB of the cone (V, AB). We complete the conical part VCD. Let h and l be the vertical height and slant height respectively. Then OP = h and AC = BD = l.

The frustum of the right circular cone can be viewed as the difference of the two right circular VAB and VCD.
Let the height of the cone VAB be h₁ and its slant height l₁ i.e. VP = h₁ and VA = VB = l₁.

Now from right ∆DEB, we have
DB² = DE² + BE²

⇒ l² = h² + (R – r)²
⇒ l = \(\sqrt{h^{2}+(\mathrm{R}-r)^{2}}\)
Again ∆VOD ~ ∆VPB

⇒ \(\frac{V D}{V B}=\frac{O D}{P B}\)

⇒ \(\frac{l_{1}-l}{l_{1}}=\frac{r}{R}\)

⇒ 1 – \(\frac{l}{l_{1}}=\frac{r}{\mathrm{R}}\)

⇒ \(\frac{l}{l_{1}}=1-\frac{r}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{\mathrm{R}-r}{\mathrm{R}}\)

⇒ l₁ = \(\frac{l \mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{R}-r}\)

⇒ Now, l₁ – l₁ = \(\frac{l \mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{R}-r}-l=\frac{l r}{\mathrm{R}-r}\)

Curved surface area of the frustum of cone = πRl₁ – πr(l₁ – l)
[Curved surface area of a cone = π × r × 1]

= πR. \(\frac{l R}{R-r}\) – πr. \(\frac{l r}{\mathrm{R}-r}\)

= πl (\(\frac{\mathrm{R}^{2}-r^{2}}{\mathrm{R}-r}\)) = \(\frac{\pi l(\mathrm{R}-r)(\mathrm{R}+r)}{(\mathrm{R}-r)}\)
= πl (R + r) sq. units.
∴ Curved snafaue area of the frustum of right circular cone = πl (R + r) sq. units,
where l = \(\sqrt{h^{2}+(\mathrm{R}-r)^{2}}\)
and total surface area of frustum of right circular cone = Curved surface area + Area of base + Area of top
= πl (R + r) + πR² + πr²
∴ π [R² + r² + l (R + r)] sq. units.

Question 7.
Derive the formula for the volume of the frustum of a cone, given to you in section 13.5, using the symbols as explained.
Solution:
A frustum of a right circular cone has two unequal flat circular bases and a curved surface. Let ACDB be the frustum of the cone obtained by removing the portion VCD. The line-segment OP joining the centres of two bases is called the height of the frustum. Each of the line-segments AC and BD of frustum ACDB is called its slant height.

Ler R and r be the radii of the circular end faces (R > r) of the fnistum ACDB of the cone (V, AB). We complete the conical part VCD. Let h and l be the vertical height and slant height respectively. Then OP = h and AC = BD = l. The frustum of the right circular cone can be viewed as the difference of the two right circular VAB and VCD.
Let theheight of the cone VAB be h₁ and its slant height l₁ i.e.VP = h₁ and VA = VB = l₁.
∴ The height of the cone VCD = VP – OP = h₁ – h
Since right ∆s VOD and VPB are similar
⇒ \(\frac{\mathrm{VO}}{\mathrm{VP}}=\frac{\mathrm{OD}}{\mathrm{PB}}=\frac{h_{1}-h}{h_{1}}=\frac{r}{\mathrm{R}}\)

⇒ 1 – \(\frac{h}{h_{1}}=\frac{r}{\mathrm{R}}\)

⇒ \(\frac{h}{h_{1}}=1-\frac{r}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{\mathrm{R}-r}{\mathrm{R}}\)

⇒ h₁ = \(\frac{h \mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{R}-r}\)

⇒ Height of the cone VCD = \(\frac{h \mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{R}-r}-h=\frac{h \mathrm{R}-h \mathrm{R}+h r}{\mathrm{R}-r}=\frac{h r}{\mathrm{R}-r}\)

Volume of the frustrum ACDB of the cone (V,AB) = Volume of the cone (V, AB) – Volume of the cone (V, CD)
= \(\)

= \(\frac{\pi}{3}\left(\mathrm{R}^{2} \cdot \frac{h \mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{R}-r}-r^{2} \cdot \frac{h r}{\mathrm{R}-r}\right)\)

= \(\frac{\pi h}{3}\left(\frac{\mathrm{R}^{3}-r^{3}}{\mathrm{R}-r}\right)\)

= \(\frac{1}{3} \pi h \times \frac{(\mathrm{R}-r)\left(\mathrm{R}^{2}+\mathrm{R} r+r^{2}\right)}{(\mathrm{R}-r)}\)

= \(\frac{1}{3}\) πh (R² + Rr + r²)
Hence, volume of the frustum of cone is \(\frac{1}{3}\) πh (R² + Rr + r²).

Again if A₁ and A₂ (A₁ > A₂) are the surface areas of the two circular bases, then A₁ = πR² andA₂ = πr²

Now volume of the frustum of cone,

= \(\frac{1}{3}\) πh (R² + r² + Rr)

= \(\frac{h}{3}\) (πR² + πr² + \(\sqrt{\pi \mathrm{R}^{2}} \sqrt{\pi r^{2}}\))

= \(\frac{h}{3}\) (A₁ + A₂ + \(\sqrt{A_{1} A_{2}}\))

1. Observe the following tables and find if x and y are directly proportional.

Question (i)

X	20	17	14	11	8	5	2
y	40	34	28	22	16	10	4

Solution:
\(\begin{aligned}
&\frac{20}{40}=\frac{1}{2}, \frac{17}{34}=\frac{1}{2}, \frac{14}{28}=\frac{1}{2}, \frac{11}{22}=\frac{1}{2}, \frac{8}{16}=\frac{1}{2} \\
&\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}, \frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}
\end{aligned}\)
The value of \(\frac{\text {x}}{\text {y}}\) is same for different values of x and y. So these values x and y are directly proportional.

Question (ii)

X	6	10	14	18	22	26	30
y	4	8	12	16	20	24	28

Solution:
\(\begin{aligned}
&\frac{6}{4}=\frac{3}{2}, \frac{10}{8}=\frac{5}{4}, \frac{14}{12}=\frac{7}{6}, \frac{18}{16}=\frac{9}{8}, \frac{22}{20}=\frac{11}{10}, \\
&\frac{26}{24}=\frac{13}{12}, \frac{30}{28}=\frac{15}{14}
\end{aligned}\)
The values of \(\frac{\text {x}}{\text {y}}\) are different for different values of x and y respectively. So these values of x and y are not directly proportional.

Question (iii)

X	5	8	12	15	18	20
y	15	24	36	60	72	100

Solution:
The values of \(\frac{\text {x}}{\text {y}}\) are different for different values of x and y respectively.
So these values of x and y are not directly proportional.

2. Principal = ₹ 1000, Rate = 8 % per annum. Fill in the following table and find which type of interest (simple or compound) changes in direct proportion with time period.

Time Period	1 year	2 years	3 years
Simple Interest (in ₹)
Compound Interest (in ₹)

Solution:
Simple interest : SI = \(\frac{P \times R \times T}{100}\)
For calculation:
P = ₹ 1000, R = 8 %, T = …………….

Time (T) →	1 year: T = 1	2 years : T = 2	3 years : T = 3
Simple interest SI = \(\frac{P \times R \times T}{100}\)	₹ \(\frac{1000 \times 8 \times 1}{100}\) = ₹ 80	₹ \(\frac{1000 \times 8 \times 2}{100}\) = ₹ 160	₹ \(\frac{1000 \times 8 \times 3}{100}\) = ₹ 240
\(\frac{\text { SI }}{\text { T }}\)	\(\frac {80}{1}\) = 80	\(\frac {160}{2}\) = 80	\(\frac {240}{3}\) = 80

Here, the ratio of simple interest with time period is same for every year.
Hence, simple interest changes in direct proportion with time period.
Compound interest:
For calculation:
P = ₹ 1000, R = 8 %, T = ……………

Time →	1 year : n = 1
A = P(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\))n CI = A – P	A = 1000(1 + \(\frac {8}{100}\))1 = 1000 × \(\frac {108}{100}\) = 1080 ∴ CI = 1080 – 1000 = ₹ 80
\(\frac{\text { CI }}{\text { T }}\)	\(\frac {80}{1}\)

Time →	2 years : n = 2
A = P(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\))n CI = A – P	A = 1000(1 + \(\frac {8}{100}\))2 = 1000 × \(\frac {108}{100}\) × \(\frac {108}{100}\) = ₹ 1166.40 ∴ CI = ₹ 1166.40 – 1000 = ₹ 166.40
\(\frac{\text { CI }}{\text { T }}\)	\(\frac {166.40}{2}\)

Time →	3 years : n = 3
A = P(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\))n CI = A – P	A = 1000(1 + \(\frac {8}{100}\))3 = 1000 × \(\frac {108}{100}\) × \(\frac {108}{100}\) × \(\frac {108}{100}\) = ₹ 1259.712 ∴ CI = ₹ 1259.712 – ₹ 1000 = ₹ 259.712
\(\frac{\text { CI }}{\text { T }}\)	\(\frac {259.712}{3}\)

Here, the ratio of CI and T is not same.
Thus, compound interest is not proportional with time period.

1. If we fix time period and the rate of interest, simple interest changes proportionally with principal. Would there be a similar relationship for compound interest? Why?
Solution:
Time period (T) and rate of interest (R) are fixed, then
Simple interest = \(\frac {PRT}{100}\) = P × Constant
So simple interest depends on principal. Simple interest changes proportionally with principal.
Now, compound interest = P(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\))^T – P
i.e., A – P
= P [(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\)^T – 1]
= P × Constant
So compound interest depends on principal.
If principal increases or decreases, then compound interest will also increases or decreases.
Thus, compound interest changes with principal.

1. Take a few problems discussed so far under ‘direct variation’. Do you think that they can be solved by ‘unitary method’?
Solution:
Yes, each problem can be solved by unitary method.
e.g. Question 4 of Exercise: 13.1
Number of bottles filled in 6 hours = 840
∴ The number of bottles filled in 1 hour = \(\frac {840}{6}\) = 140
The number of bottles filled in 5 hours = 140 × 5 = 700
Thus, 700 bottles will it fill in five hours.

1. Observe the following tables and find which pair of variables (here x and y) are in inverse proportion.

Question (i)

X	50	40	30	20
y	5	6	7	8

Solution:
x₁ = 50 and y₁ = 5
∴ x₁y₁ = 50 × 5
∴ x₁y₁ = 250

x₂ = 40 and y₂ = 6
∴ x₂y₂ = 40 × 6
∴ x₂y₂ = 240

x₃ = 30 and y₃ = 7
∴ x₃y₃ = 30 × 7
∴ x₃y₃ = 210

x₄ = 20 and y₄ = 8
∴ x₄y₄ = 20 × 8
∴ x₄y₄ = 160
Now 250 ≠ 240 ≠ 210 ≠ 160
∴ x₁y₁ ≠ x₂y₂ ≠ x₃y₃ ≠ x₄y₄
∴ x and y are not in inverse proportion.

Question (ii)

X	100	200	300	400
y	60	30	20	15

Solution:
x₁ = 100 and y₁ = 60
∴ x₁y₁ = 100 × 60
∴ x₁y₁ = 6000

x₂ = 200 and y₂ = 30
∴ x₂y₂ = 200 × 30
∴ x₂y₂ = 6000

x₃ = 300 and y₃ = 20
∴ x₃y₃ = 300 × 20
∴ x₃y₃ = 6000

x₄ = 400 and y₄ = 15
∴ x₄y₄ = 400 × 15
∴ x₄y₄ = 6000
Now x₁y₁ = x₂y₂ = x₃y₃ = x₄y₄
∴ x and y are in inverse proportion.

Question (iii)

X	90	60	45	30	20	5
y	10	15	20	25	30	35

Solution:
x₁ = 90 and y₁ = 10
∴ x₁y₁ = 90 × 10
∴ x₁y₁ = 900

x₂ = 60 and y₂ = 15
∴ x₂y₂ = 60 × 15
∴ x₂y₂ = 900

x₃ = 45 and y₃ = 20
∴ x₃y₃ = 45 × 20
∴ x₃y₃ = 900

x₄ = 30 and y₄ = 25
∴ x₄y₄ = 30 × 25
∴ x₄y₄ = 750

x₅ = 20 and y₅ = 30
∴ x₅y₅ = 20 × 30
∴ x₅y₅ = 600

x₆ = 30 and y₆ = 35
∴ x₆y₆ = 5 × 35
∴ x₆y₆ = 175

Now x₁y₁ = x₂y₂ = x₃y₃ ≠ x₄y₄ ≠ x₅y₅ ≠ x₆y₆
∴ x and y are in inverse proportion.
