Q1: A survey was conducted by a group of students as a part of their environment 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.


Answer:

We use the following relation to find the class mark (x_i) for each interval:

Class mark (x_i) =

Calculating x_i and f_ix_i as follows:

Number of plants	Number of houses(fi)	xi	fixi
0 -2	1	1	1 ☓ 1 = 1
2 -4	2	3	2 ☓ 3 = 6
4 -6	1	5	1 ☓ 5 = 5
6 -8	5	7	5 ☓ 7 = 35
8 - 10	6	9	6 ☓ 9 = 54
10 -12	2	11	2 ☓ 11 = 22
12 - 14	3	13	3 ☓ 13 = 39
Total	20		162

From the table, it is observed that

Σ f_i = 20

Σ f_ix_i = 162

Mean , x =

= = 8.1

Therefore, mean number of plants per house is 8.1.

Here, direct method has been used as the values of class marks (x_i) and f_i are small.


Q2: Consider the following distribution of daily wages of 50 worker of a factory.

Number of workers	12	14	8	6	10

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

Square and Square roots

Exercise 6.4

Q1: Find the square root of each of the following numbers by division method.

(i)2304  (ii) 4489  (iii)3481  (iv) 529   (v)3249 (vi) 1369

(vii)5776 (viii) 7921  (ix)576 (x) 1024 (xi)3136 (xii) 900

Answer:

(i)The square root of 2304 is calculated as follows.

	48
4	23 04 -16
88	704 704
	0

∴√ 2304  = 48

(ii)The square root of 4489 is calculated as follows.

	67
6	44 89 -36
127	889 889
	0

∴√ 4489  = 67

(iii)The square root of 3481 is calculated as follows.

	59
5	34 81 -25
109	981 981
	0

∴√ 3481  = 59

(iv)The square root of 529 is calculated as follows.

	23
5	5 29 -4
43	129 129
	0

∴√ 529  = 23

(v)The square root of 3249 is calculated as follows.

	57
5	32 49 -25
107	749 749
	0

∴√ 3249  = 57

(vi)The square root of 1369 is calculated as follows.

	37
3	13 69 -9
67	469 469
	0

∴√ 1369  = 37

(vii)The square root of 5776 is calculated as follows.

	76
7	57 76 -49
146	876 876

∴√ 5776  = 76

CBSE Class 8 - Maths - Cube and Cube Roots (Ex 7.1)

Cube and Cube Roots 

(NCERT Ex 7.1)

Q1: Which of the following numbers are not perfect cubes?
(i)  216
(ii) 128
(iii) 1000
(iv) 100
(v) 46656

Answer:

(i) The prime factorisation of 216 is as follows:

2	216
2	108
2	54
3	27
3	9
3	3
	1

∴ 216 = 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 3 ☓ 3 ☓ 3 = 2³ ☓ 3³

Here, each prime factor appears as many times as a perfect multiple of 3, therefore, 216 is a
perfect cube.

(ii) The prime factorisation of 128 is as follows:

2	128
2	64
2	32
2	16
2	8
2	4
2	2
	1

∴  128 = 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2

Here, each prime factor does not appear as many times as a perfect multiple of 3. Therefore, 128 is not a perfect cube.

(iii)The prime factorisation of 1000 is as follows.

2	1000
2	500
2	250
5	125
5	25
5	5
	1

∴ 1000 = 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 5 ☓ 5 ☓ 5 =  2³ ☓ 5³

Here, as each prime factor appears as many times as a perfect multiple of 3, therefore, 1000 is a perfect cube.

(iv)The prime factorisation of 100 is as follows.

2	100
2	50
5	25
5	5
	1

∴ 100 = 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 5 ☓ 5

Here, each prime factor does not form triplet group(s). Therefore, 100 is not a perfect cube.

(iv) The prime factorisation of 46656 is as follows.

2	46656
2	23328
2	11664
2	5832
2	2916
2	1458
3	729
3	243
3	81
3	27
3	9
3	3
	1

46656 = 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 2 ☓ 3 ☓ 3 ☓ 3 ☓ 3 ☓ 3 ☓ 3
 = 2³ ☓ 2³ ☓ 3³ ☓ 3³
Here, each prime factor appears as many times as a perfect multiple of 3,
∴ 46656 is a perfect cube.

Q2: Find the smallest number by which each of the following numbers must be multiplied to obtain a perfect cube.
