  • A
    $14, 10$
  • B
    $14, 18$
  • C
    $6, 18$

The mean and standard deviation of a distribution of weights of a group of $20$ boys are $40 \ kg$ and $5 \ kg$ respectively. If two boys of weights $43 \ kg$ and $37 \ kg$ are excluded from this group,then the variance of the distribution of weights of the remaining group of boys is

In an experiment with $15$ observations for $x$,the following results were available: $\sum x^2 = 2830$ and $\sum x = 170$. One observation $20$ was found to be wrong and was replaced by the correct value $30$. Then the corrected variance is:

If $\sum_{i=1}^{10} (x_i - 15) = 12$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{10} (x_i - 15)^2 = 18$,find the standard deviation of the observations $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_{10}$.
