The
mean of the numbers a, b, 8, 5, 10 is 6 and the variance is 6.80. Then which
one of the following
gives
possible values of a and b?
(1) `a""=""0,""b""=""7`
(2) `a""=""5,""b""=""2`
(3) `a""=""1,""b""=""6`
(4) `a""=""3,""b""=""4`

AI Generated Solution
To solve the problem, we need to find the values of \( a \) and \( b \) given that the mean of the numbers \( a, b, 8, 5, 10 \) is 6 and the variance is 6.80.
### Step 1: Calculate the Mean
The mean of the numbers is given by the formula:
\[
\text{Mean} = \frac{a + b + 8 + 5 + 10}{5}
\]
We know that the mean is 6, so we can set up the equation:
