The mean and variance of $7$ observations are $8$ and $16$ respectively. If two observations are $6$ and $8 ,$ then the variance of the remaining $5$ observations is:

Let $S$ be the set of all values of $a_1$ for which the mean deviation about the mean of $100$ consecutive positive integers $a _1, a _2, a _3, \ldots ., a _{100}$ is $25$. Then $S$ is

Find the mean and variance of the frequency distribution given below:

$\begin{array}{|l|l|l|l|l|} \hline x & 1 \leq x<3 & 3 \leq x<5 & 5 \leq x<7 & 7 \leq x<10 \\ \hline f & 6 & 4 & 5 & 1 \\ \hline \end{array}$

Let $n \geq 3$. A list of numbers $x_1, x, \ldots, x_n$ has mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$. A new list of numbers $y_1, y_2, \ldots, y_n$ is made as follows $y_1=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, y_2=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}$ and $y_j=x_j$ for $j=3,4, \ldots, n$.

The mean and the standard deviation of the new list are $\hat{\mu}$ and $\hat{\sigma}$. Then, which of the following is necessarily true?

The diameters of circles (in mm) drawn in a design are given below:

Calculate the standard deviation and mean diameter of the circles.

[ Hint : First make the data continuous by making the classes as $32.5-36.5,36.5-40.5,$ $40.5-44.5,44.5-48.5,48.5-52.5 $ and then proceed.]

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..
