The diameters of circles (in mm) drawn in a design are given below:
Diameters $33-36$ $37-40$ $41-44$ $45-48$ $49-52$
No. of circles $15$ $17$ $21$ $22$ $25$

Calculate the standard deviation and mean diameter of the circles.
[ Hint : First make the data continuous by making the classes as $32.5-36.5, 36.5-40.5, 40.5-44.5, 44.5-48.5, 48.5-52.5$ and then proceed.] (in $\text{ mm}$)

Two plants $A$ and $B$ of a factory show the following results regarding the number of workers and the wages paid to them:
\text{Parameter}\text{Plant } $A$ \text{ and } $B$ \text{ Data}
\text{No. of workers}$A: 500, B: 6000$
\text{Average monthly wages}$A: Rs. 2500, B: Rs. 2500$
\text{Variance of distribution of wages}$A: 81, B: 100$

In which plant,$A$ or $B$,is there greater variability in individual wages?

The coefficient of variation for the frequency distribution is

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:

Let $X = \{x \in N : 1 \leq x \leq 17\}$ and $Y = \{ax + b : x \in X \text{ and } a, b \in R, a > 0\}$. If the mean and variance of the elements of $Y$ are $17$ and $216$ respectively,then $a + b$ is equal to:

The variance of $20$ observations is $5$. If each of the observations is multiplied by $2$,then the variance of the resulting observations is:
