The mean and the standard deviation (S . D .) of five observations...

The mean and the standard deviation (S.D.)\left(S . D .\right) of five observations are 9and09 and 0, respectively. If one of the observation is increased such that the mean of the new set of five observations becomes 1010, then their S.D.S . D . is

Correct answer

B. 22

Step-by-step solution

x¯=∑xin=9\overset{¯}{x} = \dfrac{∑ {x}_{i}}{n} = 9

s.d=∑(xi−x¯)2n=0s . d = \sqrt{∑ \dfrac{{\left({x}_{i} - \overset{¯}{x}\right)}^{2}}{n}} = 0

⇒xi=x¯∀i⇒ {x}_{i} = \overset{¯}{x} \forall i

∴∴ each term in the original observation is 99

⇒⇒ observation 1=9,9,9,9,91 = { 9, 9, 9, 9, 9 }

x¯new=∑xin=9+9+9+9+x55\overset{¯}{x}new = \dfrac{∑ {x}_{i}}{n} = \dfrac{9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + {x}_{5}}{5}

⇒10=36+x55⇒ 10 = \dfrac{36 + {x}_{5}}{5}

⇒x5=14⇒ {x}_{5} = 14

⇒⇒ new set of observations =9,9,9,9,14= { 9, 9, 9, 9, 14 }

s.dnew=∑(xi−x¯new)2ns . {d}_{new} = \sqrt{\dfrac{∑ {\left({x}_{i} - \overset{¯}{x}new\right)}^{2}}{n}}

=(9−10)2+(9−10)2+(9−10)2+(14−10)25= \sqrt{\dfrac{( 9 - 10{)}^{2} + ( 9 - 10{)}^{2} + ( 9 - 10{)}^{2} + ( 14 - 10{)}^{2}}{5}}

=4+425= \sqrt{\dfrac{4 + {4}^{2}}{5}}

=205=2= \sqrt{\dfrac{20}{5}} = 2
