In an experiment with 15 observation on...

In an experiment with 15 observation on x, the following results were available. `sumx^(2)=2830,sumx=170` One observation 20 was found to be wrong and was replaced by the correct value 30. Then the corrected variance is

A

`78.00`

B

`188.66`

C

`177.33`

D

`8.33`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`sum x=170, sum x^(2)=2830`
The increase in `sum x` is 10, then
`sum x'=170+10=180`
The increase in `sum x^(2) " is" 900-400=500, `then
`sum x^(2)=2830+500=3330`
Variance`=(1)/(n) sum x^(2)-((1)/(2)sum x')^(2)^(2)`
`=(1)/(15)xx3330-((1)/(15)xx180)^(2)`
=222-144=78
