Solution:-

Frequency Distribution     Frequency     Mid values     F*M

0 - 10                                    8                     5                40

10 - 20                                  x                    15               15x

20 - 30                                 10                   25               250

30 - 40                                 11                   35               385

40 - 50                                  9                    45               405

                                         Σf = 38+x                      Σfm = 1080+15x

Given Mean = 25.2

Mean = Σfm/Σf

25.2 = 1080+15x/38+x

25.2 × (38+x) = 1080+15x

957.6+25.2x = 1080+15x

25.2x - 15x = 1080 - 957.6

10.2x = 122.4

x = 122.4/10.2

x = 12

Missing frequency = 12  Answer

y = 0.77(x)

step-by-step explanation:

the jacket retains this value after 23% cut or retains 77% of original value. plug original 87 jacket price for x and the remaining value should be y.
