The mean and variance of 7 observations are 8 and 16 respectively. If one observation 14 is omitted and a and b are respectively mean and variance of remaining 6 observation, then $$\mathrm{a+3 b-5}$$ is equal to ___________.

Let $$X=\{11,12,13,....,40,41\}$$ and $$Y=\{61,62,63,....,90,91\}$$ be the two sets of observations. If $$\overline x $$ and $$\overline y $$ are their respective means and $$\sigma^2$$ is the variance of all the observations in $$\mathrm{X\cup Y}$$, then $$\left| {\overline x + \overline y - {\sigma ^2}} \right|$$ is equal to ____________.

Let the mean and the variance of 20 observations $$x_{1}, x_{2}, \ldots, x_{20}$$ be 15 and 9 , respectively. For $$\alpha \in \mathbf{R}$$, if the mean of $$\left(x_{1}+\alpha\right)^{2},\left(x_{2}+\alpha\right)^{2}, \ldots,\left(x_{20}+\alpha\right)^{2}$$ is 178 , then the square of the maximum value of $$\alpha$$ is equal to ________.

Let $$x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{3}, \ldots, x_{20}$$ be in geometric progression with $$x_{1}=3$$ and the common ratio $$\frac{1}{2}$$. A new data is constructed replacing each $$x_{i}$$ by $$\left(x_{i}-i\right)^{2}$$. If $$\bar{x}$$ is the mean of new data, then the greatest integer less than or equal to $$\bar{x}$$ is ____________.
