Suppose a class has $7$ students. The average marks of these students in the mathematics examination is $62$, and their variance is $20$ . A student fails in the examination if $he/she$ gets less than $50$ marks, then in worst case, the number of students can fail is
$5$
$3$
$4$
$0$
Suppose values taken by a variable $x$ are such that $a \le {x_i} \le b$, where ${x_i}$ denotes the value of $x$ in the $i^{th}$ case for $i = 1, 2, ...n.$ Then..
The mean and the standard deviation (s.d.) of $10$ observations are $20$ and $2$ resepectively. Each of these $10$ observations is multiplied by $\mathrm{p}$ and then reduced by $\mathrm{q}$, where $\mathrm{p} \neq 0$ and $\mathrm{q} \neq 0 .$ If the new mean and new s.d. become half of their original values, then $q$ is equal to
The variance of $10$ observations is $16$. If each observation is doubled, then standard deviation of new data will be -
The mean and variance of $20$ observations are found to be $10$ and $4,$ respectively. On rechecking, it was found that an observation $9$ was incorrect and the correct observation was $11$. Then the correct variance is
