Problem Solving
(a) Given a set of data 3, 5, 8, 9, 10 and 72. If number 72 is removed from the set of data, determine the effect on the range, the interquartile range,
and the standard deviation.
(b) A set of data has a range of 400, interquartile range of 190 and variance of 15 250. Find the new measures of dispersion when each number in the
set of data is multiply by 4 and added by 1.
(c) A set of 6 numbers has a mean of 35 and a variance of 40. If a number is added to the set of data, the mean is 45, find the number added to the
data and the variance of the new set of data.
(d) The sum of 5 numbers is . The sum of the squares of the numbers is 120 and the standard deviation is 4s. Express s in terms of t.
(e) Set A consists of 5 numbers. The sum of the numbers is 60 and the sum of squares of the numbers is 740. Find the mean and the standard deviation.
(f) A set of eight numbers has a mean of 6. Find . When a number t is removed from the set, the new mean is 5.6. Find the value of t.
(g) In a survey, two sets of data are obtained as follows:
Set A: 0, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3
Set B: 0, 0, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4
Which set of data is to be preferred? Give a reason to support your answer.
