The following values are calculated in respect of heights and weights of the students of a section of Class $XI$:
Measure Height Weight
Mean $162.6 \ cm$ $52.36 \ kg$
Variance $127.69 \ cm^2$ $23.1361 \ kg^2$

Can we say that the weights show greater variation than the heights?

Let $x_1, x_2, x_3, \dots, x_n$ be $n$ observations,$\bar{x}$ be their arithmetic mean,and $\sigma^2$ be their variance.
Statement $-1$: The variance of observations $2x_1, 2x_2, 2x_3, \dots, 2x_n$ is $4\sigma^2$.
Statement $-2$: The arithmetic mean of $2x_1, 2x_2, 2x_3, \dots, 2x_n$ is $4\bar{x}$.

The standard deviation of the following distribution is:
Class interval$0-10$$10-20$$20-30$$30-40$
Frequency$1$$3$$4$$2$

$A$ data consists of $20$ observations $x_1, x_2, ..., x_{20}$. If $\sum_{i=1}^{20} (x_i + 5)^2 = 2500$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{20} (x_i - 5)^2 = 100$, then the ratio of mean to standard deviation of this data is:

In an experiment with $15$ observations on $x$,we have $\sum x^2 = 2830$ and $\sum x = 170$. One observation that was $20$ was found to be wrong and was replaced by the correct value $30$. The corrected variance is:
