Misc 6 The mean and standard deviation of a group of 100 observations were found to be 20 and 3, respectively. Later on it was found that three observations were incorrect, which were recorded as 21, 21 and 18. Find the mean and standard deviation if the incorrect observations are omitted Given that number of observations (n) = 100 Incorrect mean ( ๐ฅ๏ทฏ ) = 20, Incorrect standard deviation (ฯ) = 3 We know that ๐ฅ๏ทฏ = 1๏ทฎ๐๏ทฏ 20 = 1๏ทฎ100๏ทฏ 20 ร 100 = 2000 = = 2000 โด Incorrect sum of observations = 2000 Finding correct sum of observations , incorrect observations 21, 21 and 18 are removed So, Correct sum of observations = Incorrect sum โ 21 โ 21 โ 18 = 2000 โ 21 โ 21 โ 18 = 1940 Hence, Correct mean = Correct sum of observations๏ทฎNumber of observations ๏ทฏ = 1940๏ทฎ100 โ ๐๏ทฏ = 1940๏ทฎ๐๐๏ทฏ = 20 Now, Incorrect Standard deviation (ฯ) = 1๏ทฎN๏ทฏ ๏ทฎN ร(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ) โ ๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi๏ทฏ๏ทฏ2๏ทฏ๏ทฏ 3 = 1๏ทฎ100๏ทฏ ๏ทฎ100(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ) โ ๐ฐ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi๏ทฏ๏ทฏ2๏ทฏ๏ทฏ 3 ร 100 = ๏ทฎ100(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ) โ ๐๐๐๐๏ทฏ2๏ทฏ๏ทฏ 300 = ๏ทฎ100(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ) โ 2000๏ทฏ2๏ทฏ๏ทฏ Squaring both sides (300)2 = ๏ทฎ100(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 )โ 2000๏ทฏ2๏ทฏ๏ทฏ๏ทฏ๏ทฎ2๏ทฏ 90000 = 100(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ) โ 2000๏ทฏ2๏ทฏ 90000 = 100(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ) โ๏ทฏ 4000000 90000 + 4000000 = 100(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ) ๏ทฏ 4090000 = 100(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ) ๏ทฏ 100(๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ) ๏ทฏ = 4090000 ๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ๏ทฏ= 1๏ทฎ100๏ทฏ ร 4090000 ๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ๏ทฏ = 40900 Since 21, 21 and 18 are removed So, (๐ช๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 ๏ทฏ) = 40900 โ (21)2 โ (21)2 โ (18)2 = 40900 โ 441 โ 441 โ 364 = 39694 Now, Correct Standard deviation (ฯ) = 1๏ทฎN๏ทฏ ๏ทฎN ร(๐ถ๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi2 )โ ๐ถ๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๏ทฎ๏ทฎxi๏ทฏ๏ทฏ2๏ทฏ๏ทฏ = 1๏ทฎ๐๐๏ทฏ ๏ทฎ๐๐ 39694๏ทฏ โ 1940๏ทฏ2๏ทฏ = 1๏ทฎ97๏ทฏ ๏ทฎ3850318 โ3763600๏ทฏ = 1๏ทฎ97๏ทฏ ๏ทฎ๐๐๐๐๐๏ทฏ = 1๏ทฎ97๏ทฏ ร 294.4 = 3.036 Hence, correct Standard deviation = 3.036
