      The mean of five observations is 5 and their variance is 9.20 three of the given five observations are then a ratio of other two observations is:

    A) \[10:3\]             

    B)  4 : 9

    C)  5 :  8               

    D) 6 : 7

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\mu =\frac{1+3+8+x+y}{5}\]
    \[25=12+x+y\]
    \[\Rightarrow \] \[x+y=13\]
    \[{{\sigma }^{2}}=\frac{\sum{{{({{x}_{i}}-\mu )}^{2}}}}{N}\]
    \[9.2=\frac{1+9+64+{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}}{5}-25\]
    \[34.2\times 5=74+{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}\]
    \[171=74+{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}\]
    \[97={{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}\] ? (2)
    \[{{(x+y)}^{2}}={{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+2xy\]
    \[169-97=2xy\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   xy = 36
                T = 4, 9
    So, ration is \[\frac{4}{9}or\frac{9}{4}.\]
