$\bar{x}$ and $\bar{y}$ are the arithmetic means of the runs of two batsmen $A$ and $B$ in $10$ innings respectively,and $\sigma_{A}$ and $\sigma_{B}$ are the standard deviations of their runs. If batsman $A$ is more consistent than $B$,then he is also a higher run scorer only when

The mean age of $25$ teachers in a school is $40 \text{ years}$. $A$ teacher retires at the age of $60 \text{ years}$ and a new teacher is appointed in his place. If now the mean age of the teachers in this school is $39 \text{ years}$,then the age (in years) of the newly appointed teacher is

The mean and standard deviation of $20$ observations are found to be $10$ and $2$ respectively. On rechecking,it was found that an observation $8$ was incorrect. If the incorrect observation $8$ is replaced by $12$,calculate the correct mean and standard deviation.

Let the mean and variance of $12$ observations be $\frac{9}{2}$ and $4$ respectively. Later on,it was observed that two observations were considered as $9$ and $10$ instead of $7$ and $14$ respectively. If the correct variance is $\frac{m}{n}$,where $m$ and $n$ are co-prime,then $m + n$ is equal to

The means of two groups of observations $A$ and $B$ are $\bar{x}$ and $\bar{y}$ respectively,and their standard deviations are $2$ and $3$ respectively. In order for group $A$ to be more consistent than group $B$,$\frac{\bar{y}}{\bar{x}} < $
