Section E

Section E consists of 3 case study-based questions of 4 marks each.

36. Case study based - 1: Lavanya wants to organize her birthday party. She is very
happy on her birthday. She is very health conscious, thus she decided to serve fruits
only in her birthday party.

She has 36 apples and 60 bananas at home and decided to serve them. She wants to

37. Case study based -2: Morning assembly is an integral part of the school’s schedule.
Almost all the schools conduct morning assemblies which include prayers, information
of latest happenings, inspiring thoughts, speech, national anthem, etc. A good
school is always particular about their morning assembly schedule. Morning assembly is
important for a child’s development. It is essential to understand that morning assembly
is not just about standing in long queues and singing prayers or national anthem, but
it’s something beyond just prayers. All the activities carried out in morning assembly by
the school staff and students have a great influence in every point of life. The positive
effects of attending school assemblies can be felt throughout life.

Have you noticed that in school assembly you always stand in row and column and this
make a coordinate system. Suppose a school have 100 students and they all assemble in
prayer in 10 rows as given below.

Here A, B, C and D are four friend Amar, Bharat, Colin and Dravid.
(i) What is the distance between A and B ? 1M
(ii) What is the distance between C and D ? 1M
(iii) What is the distance between A and C ? 2M

(OR)
What is the distance between D and B ?
38. Case study based - 3: Heart Rate : The heart rate is one of the ‘vital signs,’ or the
important indicators of health in the human body. It measures the number of times per
minute that the heart contracts or beats. The speed of the heartbeat varies as a
result of physical activity, threats to safety, and emotional responses. The resting heart
rate refers to the heart rate when a person is relaxed. While a normal heart rate does
not guarantee that a person is free of health problems, it is a useful benchmark for
identifying a range of health issues. After the age of 10 years, the heart rate of a person
should be between 60 and 100 beats per minute while they are resting.

Thirty women were examined by doctors of AIIMS and the number of heart beats per
minute were recorded and summarised as follows.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions.

(i) What is the mean heart beats per minute for these women ? 1M
(ii) What is the upper limit of median value of heart beats per minute for these
women ? 1M
(iii) What is the lower limit of mode value of heart beats per minute for these
women ? 2M
(OR)
How many women are having heart beat in range 68-77?
