  1. A 562.73
  2. B 570.375
  3. C 574.375
  4. D 572.375
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 572.375

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have \(\mathrm{n}=16, \Sigma \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}=528\), and \(\frac{528}{16}=33\) \(\Rightarrow \overline{\mathrm{x}}=33\) and \(\Sigma\left(\mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}-\overline{\mathrm{x}}\right)^2=9158\)
Variance \(=\frac{1}{\mathrm{n}} \Sigma\left(\mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}-\overline{\mathrm{x}}\right)^2=\frac{9158}{16}=527.375\)
