Let be 10 observations such that and . Then the standard deviation of is equal to :
- A5
- B
- C10
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
- Given data
We have observations such that and
We need the standard deviation.
- Find using the identity
Use
Substitute the given values:
So, which gives
- Compute the mean
For observations, the mean is
- Compute the variance
Variance of observations is
Substitute values:
- Compute the standard deviation
- Match with options
The correct option is:
So, Option D is correct.
