In a Mathematics test,the average marks of boys is $x \%$ and the average marks of girls is $y \%$ with $x \neq y$. If the average marks of all students is $z \%$,the ratio of the number of girls to the total number of students is

  • A
    $\frac{z-x}{y-x}$
  • B
    $\frac{z-y}{y-x}$
  • C
    $\frac{z+y}{y-x}$
  • D
    $\frac{z+x}{y-x}$

$A$ problem in statistics is given to three students $P, Q$ and $R$. Their chances of solving the problem are $\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{4}$ respectively. If all of them try independently,then the probability that the problem is solved is:

Let $\bar{x}, M$ and $\sigma^2$ be respectively the mean,mode and variance of $n$ observations $x_1, x_2, ..., x_n$ and $d_i = -x_i - a, i = 1, 2, ..., n$,where $a$ is any number. Statement $I$: Variance of $d_1, d_2, ..., d_n$ is $\sigma^2$. Statement $II$: Mean and mode of $d_1, d_2, ..., d_n$ are $-\bar{x} - a$ and $-M - a$,respectively.

The mean and variance of $7$ observations are $8$ and $16$ respectively. If the first five observations are $2, 4, 10, 12, 14$,then the absolute difference of the remaining two observations is

The mean and standard deviation of a group of $100$ observations were found to be $20$ and $3$,respectively. Later on,it was found that three observations were incorrect,which were recorded as $21, 21,$ and $18$. Find the mean and standard deviation if the incorrect observations are omitted.

Two sets,each of $20$ observations,have the same standard deviation $5$. The first set has a mean $17$ and the second a mean $22$. Determine the standard deviation of the set obtained by combining the given two sets.
