Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(7\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Mean \(\bar x = 4,{\sigma ^2} = 5.2,n = 5,{x_1} = 3,{x_2} = 4 = {x_3}\) \(\sum {{x_i} = 20} \) \({x_4} + {x_5} = 9\,\,\,\,\,\,\,........\left( i \right)\) \(\frac{{\sum {x_i^2} }}{x} - {\left( {\bar x} \right)^2} = {\sigma ^2} \Rightarrow \sum {x_i^2} = 106\)…
