Let $x_{i} (1 \leq i \leq 10)$ be ten observations of a random variable $X$. If $\sum_{i=1}^{10} (x_{i} - p) = 3$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{10} (x_{i} - p)^{2} = 9$,where $0 \neq p \in R$,then the standard deviation of these observations is:

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{3}{5}}$
  • B
    $\frac{7}{10}$
  • C
    $\frac{9}{10}$
  • D
    $\frac{4}{5}$

If $A$ and $B$ are the variances of the first $n$ even numbers and the first $n$ odd numbers respectively,then:

The $S.D.$ of $15$ items is $6$. If each item is decreased or increased by $1$,then the standard deviation will be:

Given that the total of $16$ values is $528$ and the sum of the squares of deviations from $33$ is $9158$. The variance is:
