First of all, we shall make class-intervals continuous:
(a) Mean =
(b) S.D. =
If the observations x1, x2,........ xn are changed to x1 + a, x2 + a, x3 + a, xn+ a, where a is a negative or positive number, show that the variance remains unchanged.
Given that is the mean and
is the variance of n observations
Prove that the mean and variance of observations
are
respectively,
