5 students of a class have an average height 150 cm and variance 18 cm². A new student, whose height is 156 cm, joined them. The variance (in cm²) of the height of these six students is :

The mean and the standard deviation(s.d.) of five observations are9 and 0, respectively. If one of the observations is changed such that the mean of the new set of five observations becomes 10, then their s.d. is :

If $$\sum\limits_{i = 1}^9 {\left( {{x_i} - 5} \right)} = 9$$ and

$$\sum\limits_{i = 1}^9 {{{\left( {{x_i} - 5} \right)}^2}} = 45$$, then the standard deviation of the 9 items
$${x_1},{x_2},.......,{x_9}$$ is

If the mean of the data : 7, 8, 9, 7, 8, 7, $$\lambda $$, 8 is 8, then the variance of this data is :
