PEER EVALUATION
Q6 Read the following statements - Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Choose one of the correct
alternatives given below:
Assertion (A): Runs scored by a batsman is a continuous variable.
 Reason (R): Runs scored by a batsman is a discrete variable because it cannot assume
fractional value.
Alternatives:
a. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation
of Assertion (A)
b. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct
explanation of Assertion (A)
c. Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
d. Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.
Q7 Read the following statements - Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Choose one of the correct
alternatives given below:
Assertion (A): In exclusive method of classification, upper limit of a class is excluded from
that class.
Reason (R): Upper limit is included in the next class.
Alternatives:
a. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of
Assertion (A)
b. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct
explanation of Assertion (A)
c. Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
d. Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.

Q8 Read the following statements - Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Choose one of the correct
alternatives given below:
Assertion (A): The magnitude of a class is the difference between the upper and lower limits.
Reason (R): The smallest possible measurement in a class is known as the lower limit.
Alternatives:
a. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation
of Assertion (A)
b. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the
correct explanation of Assertion (A)
c. Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
d. Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.
Q9 Read the following statements - Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Choose one of the correct
 alternatives given below:
Assertion (A): The data classified on the basis of gender and age is an example of
manifold classification.
Reason (R): The classification done on the basis of more than two characteristics is
known as manifold classification.
Alternatives:
a. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct
explanation of Assertion (A)
b. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the
correct explanation of Assertion (A)
c. Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
d. Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.
Q10 As far as possible the number of classes should be between 5 and 15, do there is no hard
and fast rule about it. The choice of number of classes depends upon (i) number of figures
which are to be grouped (ii) the magnitude of the figures and (iii) the ease of calculation
of further statistical work.
As far as possible the lower limit of the first class should be zero or multiple of 5. To
ensure continuity and to get the correct class interval, exclusive method of
classification should be adopted.
Based on the given information answer the following questions from 10 to 13
State whether the given statement is true or false.
Q. Class mid-point is the average of the lower limit and upper limits of the class. (true/ false)
Q11. Exclusive frequency distribution series means:
a) Upper limit of the given class and the lower limit of the next class are equal.
b) Upper limit of the classes are excluded from the given class.
c) Both a and b are correct
d) None of the above
Q12 In inclusive series limit of a class is less than the lower limit of the next class.
Choose the correct alternative (upper/ lower)
Q13 It is not always necessary that the magnitude of different classes must be .
Q14 In an open-end frequency distribution, the first class interval lacks class
limit.(Lower/Upper)
Q15 Geographical classification is also known as classification.(Spatial/Temporal)
Q16 In chronological classification, data are classified on the basis of .(Numeric
value/ Time)
