Class 10 Mathematics: CBSE Sample Question Paper (2019-20) - 5 | CBSE Sample Papers For Class 10
and for n = 27,
T27 =21 + (27 - 1)(-1)=21-26 = -5
which is not possible.
[∴ number of logs in any row cannot be negative]
So, the number of rows is 16 and number of logs in the top row = 6.

Let the side of first square be x m and the side of second square be y m.
Then, the area of first square = x2 m2 
and the area of second square = y2 m2 
Perimeter of the first square = 4x m
and perimeter of the second square = 4y m Now, according to the given statement, we have
x2 + y2 = 468 ...(i)
and 4x - 4y = 24
⇒ x - y = 6 ...(ii)
From equation (ii), we have x = 6 + y ...(iii)
Putting this value of x in (i), we have

Class 10 Mathematics: CBSE Sample Question Paper (2019-20) - 5 | CBSE Sample Papers For Class 10
But the side of a square cannot be -ve.
∴ y = 12
Putting this value of y in (iii), we have  x = 6 + 12 = 18
Hence, the side of the first square is 18 m and the side of the second square = 12 m.

Ans. We have,
Median = 32 and N= 100
We prepare cumulative frequency table to calculate median:
Class 10 Mathematics: CBSE Sample Question Paper (2019-20) - 5 | CBSE Sample Papers For Class 10
We have, N = 75 + x + y = 100
⇒ x + y = 25 ...(1)
Given, median = 32, so that median class is 30-40.
l = lower limit of the median class = 30, f = frequency of the median, class = 30,
h = width of the median class = 10, cf = cumulative frequency o f the class just preceding the median class = 35 + x.

Class 10 Mathematics: CBSE Sample Question Paper (2019-20) - 5 | CBSE Sample Papers For Class 10
OR
We prepare the cumulative frequency table by more than type method as given below:
Class 10 Mathematics: CBSE Sample Question Paper (2019-20) - 5 | CBSE Sample Papers For Class 10
Here, 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 are the lower limits of the respective class interval 0 - 10, 10 - 20, 20 - 30, 30 - 40, 40 - 50, 50 - 60, 60 - 70. To represent the data in the table graphically, we mark the lower limits of the class interval on the horizontal axis (x-axis) and their corresponding cumulative frequencies on the vertical axis (y-axis), by choosing a convenient scale. Other than the given class intervals, we assume the class interval 70 - 80 succeeding to the last class mark 60 - 70 with zero frequency. Now, plot the points (0, 100), (10, 95), (20, 80), (30, 60), (40, 37), (50, 20), (60, 9) and (70, 0) on a graph paper and join them by a free hand smooth curve. This curve is called an ogive more than type (see figure).
Mark N/2 = 100/2 = 50 on the y-axis.
From the point, draw a line parallel to x-axis cutting the curve at a point P. From this point P, draw a perpendicular to the x-axis. The point of intersection M of this perpendicular with the x-axis determines the median of the given data.
