Let \(a_1, a_2, \ldots . a_{10}\) be \(10\) observations such that \(\sum_{\mathrm{k}=1}^{10} \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{k}}=50\) and \(\sum_{\forall \mathrm{k}<\mathrm{j}} \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{k}} \cdot \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{j}}=1100\). Then the standard deviation of \(a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_{10}\) is equal to :

  1. A \(5\)
  2. B  \(\sqrt{5}\)
  3. C \(10\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{115}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B)  \(\sqrt{5}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \sum_{\mathrm{k}=1}^{10} \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{k}}=50 \) \( \mathrm{a}_1+\mathrm{a}_2+\ldots+\mathrm{a}_{10}=50\) \(.........(i)\) \( \sum_{\forall \mathrm{k}<\mathrm{j}} \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{k}} \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{j}}=1100 \) \(...........(ii)\)…
