Let the six numbers a1,a2,...,a6{a}_{1}, {a}_{2}, . . . , {a}_{6} be in A.P.A . P . and a1+a3=10{a}_{1} + {a}_{3} = 10.If the mean of these six numbers is 192\dfrac{19}{2} and their variance is σ2{\sigma}^{2}, then 8σ28{\sigma}^{2} is equal to

Options

  1. A220220
  2. B210210
  3. C200200
  4. D105105

Correct answer

B. 210210

Step-by-step solution

Let a1=aandcommondifferencebe{a}_{1} = a and common difference bed.</p><p>Now,</p><p>.</p><p>Now,</p><p>{a}_{1} + {a}_{3} = 10</p><p></p><p>⇒ 2a + 2d = 10</p><p></p><p>⇒ a + d = 5 . . . \left(i\right)</p><p>Now,</p><p>Givenmean</p><p>Now,</p><p>Given mean\overset{¯}{x} = \dfrac{19}{2}</p><p></p><p>⇒ \dfrac{a + \left(a + d\right) + \left(a + 2d\right) + . . . + \left(a + 5d\right)}{6} = \dfrac{19}{2}</p><p></p><p>⇒ \dfrac{6a + 15d}{6} = \dfrac{19}{2}</p><p></p><p>⇒ 2a + 5d = 19 . . . \left(ii\right)</p><p>Solving(i) and (ii)</p><p>Solving \left(i\right) \text{ and } \left(ii\right), we get

a=2,d=3a = 2, d = 3

So, A.PA . P is 2,5,8,11,14,172, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17.

Now variance is given by,

σ2=16∑i=16xi−(x¯)2{\sigma}^{2} = \dfrac{1}{6}\mathop{∑}_{i = 1}^{6}{x}_{i} - {\left(\overset{¯}{x}\right)}^{2}

⇒σ2=4+25+64+121+196+2896−(192)2⇒ {\sigma}^{2} = \dfrac{4 + 25 + 64 + 121 + 196 + 289}{6} - {\left(\dfrac{19}{2}\right)}^{2}

⇒σ2=6996−3614⇒ {\sigma}^{2} = \dfrac{699}{6} - \dfrac{361}{4}

⇒σ2=1054⇒ {\sigma}^{2} = \dfrac{105}{4}

⇒8σ2=210⇒ 8{\sigma}^{2} = 210
