The mean and variance of 7 observations are 8 and 16 respectively. If two observations are 6 and 8, then the variance of the remaining 5 observations is :

The mean and standard deviation of 20 observations were calculated as 10 and 2.5 respectively. It was found that by mistake one data value was taken as 25 instead of 35. if $$\alpha$$ and $$\sqrt \beta $$ are the mean and standard deviation respectively for correct data, then ($$\alpha$$, $$\beta$$) is :

Let the mean and variance of the frequency distribution

$$\matrix{ {x:} & {{x_1} = 2} & {{x_2} = 6} & {{x_3} = 8} & {{x_4} = 9} \cr {f:} & 4 & 4 & \alpha & \beta \cr } $$

be 6 and 6.8 respectively. If x₃ is changed from 8 to 7, then the mean for the new data will be :
