You have the following dataset:
Data [math]1[/math] [math]2[/math] [math]3[/math] [math]4[/math] [math]5[/math] [math]6[/math] [math]7[/math] [math]8[/math] [math]9[/math] [math]10[/math] [math]x_i[/math] [math]52[/math] [math]48[/math] [math]36[/math] [math]62[/math] [math]51[/math] [math]51[/math] [math]48[/math] [math]64[/math] [math]39[/math] [math]49[/math] Calculate the sample mean and the sample standard deviation of [math]x_i[/math]. [math]\{50,8.6410\}[/math]
Calculate the population standard deviation and variance of [math]x_i[/math]. [math]\{8.1976,67.2\}[/math]
What is the Median of [math]x_i[/math].[math] \{50\}[/math]
You realise that you forgot to take account of an 11th observation that should be added to the above dataset. Your assistance adds the 11th observation and reports a new sample average of 49. What is the value of the observation that has been added? [math]\{39\}[/math]
