Two plants $A$ and $B$ of a factory show the following results regarding the number of workers and the wages paid to them:
\text{Parameter}\text{Plant } $A$ \text{ and } $B$ \text{ Data}
\text{No. of workers}$A: 500, B: 6000$
\text{Average monthly wages}$A: Rs. 2500, B: Rs. 2500$
\text{Variance of distribution of wages}$A: 81, B: 100$

In which plant,$A$ or $B$,is there greater variability in individual wages?

Let in a series of $2n$ observations,half of them are equal to $a$ and the remaining half are equal to $-a$. Also,by adding a constant $b$ to each of these observations,the mean and standard deviation of the new set become $5$ and $20$,respectively. Then the value of $a^{2} + b^{2}$ is equal to ....... .

Let the observations $x_{i} (1 \leq i \leq 10)$ satisfy the equations $\sum_{i=1}^{10}(x_{i}-5)=10$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{10}(x_{i}-5)^{2}=40$. If $\mu$ and $\lambda$ are the mean and the variance of the observations $x_{1}-3, x_{2}-3, \dots, x_{10}-3$,then the ordered pair $(\mu, \lambda)$ is equal to:
