The algebraic sum of the deviation of 20 observations measured from 30 is 2 . Then, mean of observations is
Options
- A28 . 5
- B30 . 1
- C30 . 5
- D29 . 6
Correct answer
B. 30 . 1
Step-by-step solution
Given that, Σ i = 1 20 x i - 30 = 2 ⇒   Σ i = 1 20 x i - Σ i = 1 20 30 = 2 ⇒  x ¯ = 20 · 30 20 + 2 2 0 =   30 + 0 .1 = 30 .1
