Options
- A532
- B133
- C266
- D600
Correct answer
A. 532
Step-by-step solution
The numbers are 4 , 8 , 12 . . . . . . . . 80 Mean, ( x ¯ ) = 4 1 + 2 + 3 + . . . . . . 20 20 = 42 Σ x i 2 = 4 2 1 2 + 2 2 + . . . . . . 20 2 = 16 × 20 × 21 × 41 6 = 4592 0 So, the variance is = Σ x i 2 20 - ( x - ) 2 = 2296 - 1764 = 532
