Let , R. Let the mean and the variance of 6 observations -3, 4, 7,-6, , be 2 and 23, respectively. The mean deviation about the mean of these 6 observations is :
- 163
- 113
- 143
- 133
Answer
(4) 133
Solution
Mean: 2+ + 6=2 + =10
Variance: xi26-22=23 xi2=162
110+ 2+ 2=162 2+ 2=52 = 100-522=24
\ , \=\4, 6\
M.D. = |xi-2|6= 5+2+5+8+2+46= 266= 133
Answer: (4)
