In a series of $2n$ observation, half of them are equal to $'a'$  and remaining half observations are equal to $' -a'$. If the standard deviation of this observations is $2$ then $\left| a \right|$ equals

For $(2n+1)$ observations ${x_1},\, - {x_1}$, ${x_2},\, - {x_2},\,.....{x_n},\, - {x_n}$ and $0$ where $x$’s are all distinct. Let $S.D.$ and $M.D.$ denote the standard deviation and median respectively. Then which of the following is always true

Find the mean, variance and standard deviation using short-cut method

The first of the two samples in a group has $100$ items with mean $15$ and standard deviation $3 .$ If the whole group has $250$ items with mean $15.6$ and standard deviation $\sqrt{13.44}$, then the standard deviation of the second sample is:

The mean and variance of $8$ observations are $10$ and $13.5,$ respectively. If $6$ of these observations are $5,7,10,12,14,15,$ then the absolute difference of the remaining two observations is 

For the frequency distribution :

where $0< x _{1}< x _{2}< x _{3}<\ldots .< x _{15}=10$ and

$\sum \limits_{i=1}^{15} f_{i}>0,$ the standard deviation cannot be
