If $\sum_{i=1}^{18} (x_i - 8) = 9$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{18} (x_i - 8)^2 = 45$,find the standard deviation of $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_{18}$.

For a frequency distribution,the standard deviation is computed by:

The mean of $100$ observations is $50$ and their standard deviation is $5$. Then,the sum of squares of all observations is
