For n values of the variable x, it is given that
\(\Sigma (x - 50) = 144\) and \(\Sigma x = 944\).
Find the value of n.
The time in minutes taken by Whitefay Park School in a cross-country race are recorded in the table below.
| Whitefay Park School | 45 | 47 | 53 | 56 | 56 | 61 | 64 | 66 | 69 | 73 | 75 | 78 | 83 |
The times taken by pupils at Whitefay Park School are denoted by \(x\) minutes.
The times, \(t\) seconds, taken to swim 100 m were recorded for a group of 9 swimmers and were found to be as follows.
95, 126, 117, 135, 120, 125, 114, 119, 136
For 40 values of the variable x, it is given that \(\Sigma (x-c)^2 = 3099.2\), where c is a constant. The standard deviation of these values of x is 3.2.
In a statistics lesson 12 people were asked to think of a number, \(x\), between 1 and 20 inclusive. From the results Tom found that \(\Sigma x = 186\) and that the standard deviation of \(x\) is 4.5. Assuming that Tomβs calculations are correct, find the values of \(\Sigma(x - 10)\) and \(\Sigma(x - 10)^2\).
