To calculate the first four central moments using recurrence relations, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Calculate the mean (µ) and the total number of data points (N).

Mean (µ) = Σ [Midpoint × Frequency] / N

N = Σ Frequency

Given the data:

Midpoints: 5.1, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35
Frequencies: 6, 13, 23, 39, 19, 15, 5

Calculate N:

N = 6 + 13 + 23 + 39 + 19 + 15 + 5 = 120

Now, calculate the mean (µ):

µ = (5.1*6 + 10*13 + 15*23 + 20*39 + 25*19 + 30*15 + 35*5) / 120
µ ≈ 18.575

Step 2: Calculate the central moments.

Central Moment of order 1 (µ1) = Σ [(Midpoint - µ)^1 * Frequency] /
