If each of given $n$ observations is multiplied by a certain positive number $'k'$, then for new set of observations -
variance will be unchanged.
new variance will be $k$ times old variance
standard deviation will be unchanged.
new standard deviation will be $k$ times old standard deviation
If the mean and variance of five observations are $\frac{24}{5}$ and $\frac{194}{25}$ respectively and the mean of first four observations is $\frac{7}{2}$, then the variance of the first four observations in equal to
The mean and standard deviation of $15$ observations were found to be $12$ and $3$ respectively. On rechecking it was found that an observation was read as $10$ in place of $12$ . If $\mu$ and $\sigma^2$ denote the mean and variance of the correct observations respectively, then $15\left(\mu+\mu^2+\sigma^2\right)$ is equal to$...................$
The mean and the standard deviation $(s.d.)$ of five observations are $9$ and $0,$ respectively. If one of the observations is changed such that the mean of the new set of five observations becomes $10,$ then their $s.d.$ is?
In a series of $2n$ observation, half of them are equal to $'a'$ and remaining half observations are equal to $' -a'$. If the standard deviation of this observations is $2$ then $\left| a \right|$ equals
The mean and standard deviation of marks obtained by $50$ students of a class in three subjects, Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry are given below:
Subject | Mathematics | Physics | Chemistty |
Mean | $42$ | $32$ | $40.9$ |
Standard deviation | $12$ | $15$ | $20$ |
Which of the three subjects shows the highest variability in marks and which shows the lowest?
