Mean = 10 = (3+7+9+12+13+20+x+y)/8
16 = x + y
Variance σ² = 25 = (Σx?²/8) - (mean)²
25 = (3²+7²+9²+12²+13²+20²+x²+y²)/8 = 100
x² + y² = 148
(x+y)² = x² + y² + 2xy
256 = 148 + 2xy
x . y = 54

If each observation is multiplied with p and then q is subtracted
New mean x? = px? - q ⇒ 10 = p(20)-q
and new standard deviations σ? = |p|σ? ⇒ 1 = |p|(2) ⇒ |p|=1/2 ⇒ p=±1/2
If p=1/2, then q=0. If p=-1/2, q=-20.

5+3+7+a+b = 25 ⇒ a+b=10
S.D. = √(((5²+3²+7²+a²+b²)/5) - 5²) = 2
√((a²+b²+83)/5) - 25 = 4 ⇒ a²+b² = 62
⇒ (a+b)² - 2ab = 62 ⇒ ab = 19
So equation whose roots are a and b is x² - 10x + 19 = 0

Mean = (6+10+7+13+a+12+b+12)/8 = (60+a+b)/8 = 9 ⇒ a+b=12.
Variance = (Σx? ²/n) - (mean)² = 37/4.
Σx? ²/8 - 81 = 37/4.
Σx? ² = 8 (81+9.25) = 8 (90.25) = 722.
Σx? ² = 36+100+49+169+a²+144+b²+144 = 642+a²+b².
642+a²+b²=722 ⇒ a²+b²=80.
(a+b)²=144 ⇒ a²+b²+2ab=144 ⇒ 80+2ab=144 ⇒ 2ab=64.
(a-b)² = a²+b²-2ab = 80

(i) & (ii)  ∑ i = 1 1 8 x i 2 = 9 0 − 1 8 β + 3 6 β ( α + 2 ) . . . . . . . . . . . . . ( i i i )

Now variance σ 2 = ∑ x i 2 n − ( ∑ x i n ) 2 = 1 given

=> (α - β) (α - β + 4) = 0

Since   α ≠ β     s o     | α − β | = 4

σ 2 = ∑ x 2 n − ( ∑ x n ) 2 = 9 + k 2 1 0 − ( 9 + k 1 0 ) 2 < 1 0

⇒ k < 1 0 1 0 3 + 1 ⇒ k ≤ 1 1

a, b, c, d, e be 5 unknown

n = 7, mean = 8, variance = 16

sum of observations = 7 × 8 = 56

mean of 5 remaining observation = 5 6 − 8 − 6 2 5 = 4 2 5

1 6 = ∑ x i 2 7 − 6 4

∑ x i 2 = 5 6 0

a 2 + b 2 + c 2 + d 2 + e 2 = 4 6 0 = 4 6 0 − ( 4 2 5 ) 2
