What This Question Tests

This problem tests the direct application of formulas for mean and variance of a frequency distribution to find an unknown frequency. It involves algebraic manipulation to solve for α.

Concepts Tested

Calculation of mean for frequency distributionCalculation of variance for frequency distribution

Formulas Used

Mean (μ) = (Σfᵢxᵢ) / (Σfᵢ)

Variance (σ²) = (Σfᵢxᵢ²) / (Σfᵢ) - μ²
