3. Below are given the figures of production (in thousand quintals) of a sugar factory.
 

Year 1993 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2002
Production (thousand quintals) 77 88 94 85 91 98 90

 

(i) Fit a straight line by the 'least squares' method and tabulate the trend values. (ii) Eliminate the trend. (iii) What is monthly increase in the production of sugar?

4. Based on information on 1000 randomly selected fields, about the tendency status of the cultivation of these field and use of fertilizers, collected in Agro economic survey, the following classification was noted.

  Owned Rented Total
Using fertilizers 416 184 600
Not using fertilizers 64 336 400
Total 480 520 1000

 

Would you conclude that owner cultivators are more inclined towards the use of fertilizers at 5% level. Use Chi-square.
