Let the mean and the variance of 66 observation a,b,68,44,48,60a, b, 68, 44, 48, 60 be 5555 and 194194, respectively if a>ba > b, then a+3ba + 3b is

Options

  1. A200200
  2. B190190
  3. C180180
  4. D210210

Correct answer

C. 180180

Step-by-step solution

Mean, x=a+b+68+44+48+606=55x = \dfrac{a + b + 68 + 44 + 48 + 60}{6} = 55

⇒a+b+220=330⇒ a + b + 220 = 330

⇒a+b=110...(i)⇒ a + b = 110 . . . \left(i\right)

Variance, σ2=∑(xi−x)2n{\sigma}^{2} = \dfrac{\mathop{∑}_{}^{}{\left({x}_{i} - x\right)}^{2}}{n}

⇒σ2=(a−55)2+(b−55)2+132+112+72+526=194⇒ {\sigma}^{2} = \dfrac{{\left(a - 55\right)}^{2} + {\left(b - 55\right)}^{2} + {13}^{2} + {11}^{2} + {7}^{2} + {5}^{2}}{6} = 194

⇒(a−55)2+(b−55)2+364=1164⇒ {\left(a - 55\right)}^{2} + {\left(b - 55\right)}^{2} + 364 = 1164

⇒(110−b−55)2+(b−55)2=800⇒ {\left(110 - b - 55\right)}^{2} + {\left(b - 55\right)}^{2} = 800

⇒2(55−b)2=800⇒ 2{\left(55 - b\right)}^{2} = 800

⇒(55−b)=20⇒ \left(55 - b\right) = 20

⇒b=35⇒ b = 35

⇒a=75⇒ a = 75

⇒a+3b=75+105=180⇒ a + 3b = 75 + 105 = 180
