If the sum of the deviations of observations from is , then the mean of these observations is :
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
D.
Step-by-step solution
Let the observations be .
Given \left({x}_{1} - 30\right) + \left({x}_{2} - 30\right) + . . . . . + \left({x}_{50} - 30\right) = 50⇒ {x}_{1} + {x}_{2} + . . . . . + {x}_{50} = 50 + \left(30 \times 50\right) = 1550= \dfrac{{x}_{1} + {x}_{2} + . . . . + {x}_{50}}{50} = \dfrac{1550}{50} = 31$.
