The mean of 5 observations is 4.4 and their variance is 8.24. If three of those observations are 1,2 and 6 , then the other two observations are
Options
- A9,4
- B9,5
- C9,2
- D9,13
Correct answer
A. 9,4
Step-by-step solution
Let other two observation be x and y4.4= 1+2+6+x+y 5 x+y=13...(i) and 8.24= 1 5 (1^2+2^2+6^2+x^2+y^2 )-(4.4)^2 x^2+y^2=97 Now, x^2+y^2= (x+y)^2+(x-y)^2 2 2 97-13^2=(x-y)^2 (x-y)=5...(ii) On solving (i) & (ii) we get, x=9 and y=4
