The mean of \(6\) distinct observations is \(6.5\) and their variance is \(10.25\). If \(4\) out of \(6\) observations are \(2,4,5\) and \(7 ,\) then the remaining two observations are:

  1. A \(10,11\)
  2. B \(8,13\)
  3. C \(1,20\)
  4. D \(3,18\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(10,11\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let other two numbers be \(a\), (21-a) Now, \(10.25=\frac{\left(4+16+25+49+a^{2}+(21-a)^{2}\right)}{6}\) (Using formula for variance) \(\Rightarrow 6(10.25)+6(6.5)^{2}=94+a^{2}+(21-a)^{2}\) \(\Rightarrow a 2+\left(21-a^{2}\right)=221\)…
