This document discusses measures of central tendency, including the mean, median, and mode. It defines each measure and describes their characteristics and how to calculate them. The mean is the average value and is affected by outliers. The median is the middle value and is not affected by outliers. The mode is the most frequently occurring value. The document provides examples of calculating each measure from data sets and discusses their advantages and disadvantages.
The document discusses standard deviation and its properties. Standard deviation is a measure of how spread out numbers are from the average (mean) value. It is always non-negative and can be impacted by outliers. A low standard deviation means values are close to the mean, while a high standard deviation means values are more spread out. Standard deviation can be used to calculate what percentage of data falls within certain intervals from the mean when data is normally distributed.
The F-distribution is used to compare the variances of two populations. It is defined as the ratio of two normally distributed populations' variances. The F-distribution depends on the degrees of freedom v1 and v2, which are based on the sample sizes. The null hypothesis is that the two variances are equal. If the calculated F-value exceeds the critical value from tables, the null hypothesis is rejected.

This document defines and discusses absolute and local extreme values of functions. It states that absolute extrema (global maximum and minimum values) can occur at endpoints or interior points of an interval, but a function is not guaranteed to have an absolute max or min on every interval. The Extreme Value Theorem says that if a function is continuous on a closed interval, it will have both an absolute maximum and minimum value. Local extrema are defined as maximum or minimum values within an open neighborhood of a point, and the theorem is presented that if a function has a local extremum at an interior point where the derivative exists, the derivative must be zero at that point. Critical points are defined as points where the derivative is zero or undefined. Methods

A function is uniformly continuous if it is continuous with respect to all possible inputs, not just a single point. A metric space is connected if it cannot be represented as the union of two disjoint non-empty open sets.

If the F-ratio exceeds a critical value, then the null hypothesis that the group means are equal can be rejected.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
2. Ф A measure of central tendency is a single value
that describes a typical in a set of data as a
whole.
Ф In general term, it is the average of items in a
series.
Ф It is just the center of the data of distribution.
Ф It does not provide information about the
individual data.
Ф It gives overall picture about the concentration
of values in the central part of items in a series.
Measuring height of student in a class
3. Ф Measure of central tendency is combination of two words i.e., ‘measure’ and ‘central tendency’.
Ф Measure means method and central tendency means average.
Ф It is defined as the methods to finding out of average value or typical value for a sample or a
population (statistical series of quantitative information).
Ф J. P. Guilford:- “an average is a central value of a group of observations or individuals.
Ф Clark :- “Average is an attempt to find one single figure to describe whole figure”.
Ф Simpson & Kafka :- “A measure of central tendency is a typical value around which other figures
gather”.
Ф Waugh:- “A average stand for the whole group of which it forms a part yet represents the
whole”.
4. CHARACTERISTICS:
Ф G. U. Yule suggested that a good average should
have following characteristics:-
Ф Rigidly defined.
Ф Easy to understand and easy to calculate.
Ф Based on all the observations of the data.
Ф Subjected to further mathematical calculations.
Least affected by the fluctuations of the
sampling.
Ф Not unduly affected by the extreme values.
Ф Easy to intercept.

5. USES OF CENTRAL TENDENCY
i. It provides the overall picture of the series. Each and every figure can not be
remembered.
ii. It provides a clear picture about the field under study and necessary for conclusion.
iii. It gives a concise description of the performance of the group as a whole.
iv. It enables us to compare two or more groups in terms of typical performance.
6. Ф The most common measure of central
tendency are:
(1) Mean or Arithmetic mean,
(2) Median and
(3) Mode.
7. Ф “Arithmetic mean” or “mean” is the term used for average.
Ф It is common measure of central tendency of observation.
Ф It may be calculated by several formulae.
Ф It has been defined as “the quotient obtained by dividing the total of the values of
a variable by the total number of their observations or items”.
Ф H. E. Grant (1935) defines “The arithmetic mean or simply mean is the sum of the
separate scores or measures divided by their number”.
8. Arithmetic Mean can be calculated
by following methods.
Ф These are :-
A. Direct Method or Long Method
B. Short Method or Assumed Mean
Method and
C. Step Deviation Method

16. Ф Mean is calculated in this method, when
Ф The value of the variables is large & their
frequencies are also large.
Ф A value preferably from middle is selected,
and this value is known as assumed mean.
Ф From the assumed mean deviation (d) of
each item (X) in the series is calculated.
Ф Then all of such deviations are added and
Divide it by the total no. of observation.
Ф Actual mean is then calculated by adding
the valued obtained to assumed mean
• Let the assume mean of the item in a series
is “A”, then mean is calculated by following
formula:

Ans: the no. of girls (𝒏 𝟏)= 25, mean marks ഥ𝒙 𝟏 =42
the no. of boys (𝒏 𝟐) = (60 – 25) = 35, mean marks ഥ𝒙 𝟐 = 40
