Question

(C) Let the heights of $5$ students be $x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5$.Given mean $\bar{x} = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 x_i}{5} = 150 \implies \sum_{i=1}^5 x_i = 75

(C) Let the heights of $5$ students be $x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5$.Given mean $\bar{x} = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^5 x_i}{5} = 150 \implies \sum_{i=1}^5 x_i = 750$.Given variance $\sigma^2 = \frac{\sum x_i^2}{5} - (\bar{x})^2 = 18$.$\frac{\sum x_i^2}{5} - (150)^2 = 18 \implies \frac{\sum x_i^2}{5} = 22500 + 18 = 22518$.$\sum_{i=1}^5 x_i^2 = 112590$.Now,a new student with height $x_6 = 156$ joins.The new sum of heights is $750 + 156 = 906$.The new mean $\bar{x}_{new} = \frac{906}{6} = 151$.The new sum of squares is $\sum_{i=1}^6 x_i^2 = 112590 + (156)^2 = 112590 + 24336 = 136926$.The new variance is $\frac{\sum_{i=1}^6 x_i^2}{6} - (\bar{x}_{new})^2 = \frac{136926}{6} - (151)^2$.$= 22821 - 22801 = 20 \, cm^2$.
