Let the six numbers a _ 1 , a _ 2 , . . . , a _ 6 be in A . P . and...
Let the six numbers be in and .If the mean of these six numbers is and their variance is , then is equal to
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
Let d{a}_{1} + {a}_{3} = 10⇒ 2a + 2d = 10⇒ a + d = 5 . . . \left(i\right)\overset{¯}{x} = \dfrac{19}{2}⇒ \dfrac{a + \left(a + d\right) + \left(a + 2d\right) + . . . + \left(a + 5d\right)}{6} = \dfrac{19}{2}⇒ \dfrac{6a + 15d}{6} = \dfrac{19}{2}⇒ 2a + 5d = 19 . . . \left(ii\right), we get
So, is .
Now variance is given by,
