(i) To find \(\Sigma(x - 50)\), use the formula:
\(\Sigma(x - 50) = \Sigma x - 16 \times 50 = 824 - 800 = 24\)
To find \(\Sigma(x - 50)^2\), use the variance formula:
\(\frac{\Sigma(x - 50)^2}{16} - \left(\frac{\Sigma(x - 50)}{16}\right)^2 = 6.5^2\)
\(\frac{\Sigma(x - 50)^2}{16} - \left(\frac{24}{16}\right)^2 = 42.25\)
\(\Sigma(x - 50)^2 = 712\)
(ii) With the new mark, the total sum becomes \(824 + 72 = 896\) and the number of students is 17.
New mean:
\(\text{New mean} = \frac{896}{17} = 52.7\)
New variance:
\(\text{New variance} = \frac{712 + 22^2}{17} - \left(\frac{24 + (72 - 50)}{17}\right)^2\)
\(= \frac{712 + 484}{17} - \left(\frac{46}{17}\right)^2\)
\(= \frac{1196}{17} - \left(2.7059\right)^2\)
\(= 70.3529 - 7.3248 = 63.0281\)
New standard deviation:
\(\text{New standard deviation} = \sqrt{63.0281} \approx 7.94\)
