Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1072\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{1+3+5+a+b}{5}=5\) \(a+b=16 \ldots \ldots(1)\) \(\sigma^2=\frac{\sum x_1^2}{5}-\left(\frac{\sum x}{5}\right)^2\) \(8=\frac{1^2+3^2+5^2+a^2+b^2}{5}-25\) \(a^2+b^2=130 \ldots \ldots(2)\) \(b y(1),(2)\) \(a=7, b=9\)
