The mean and standard deviation of some data for the time taken to complete . a test are calculated with the following results:

Number of observations $=25,$ mean $=18.2$ seconds, standard deviation $=3.25 s$

Further, another set of 15 observations $x_{1}, x_{2}, \ldots, x_{15},$ also in seconds, is now available and we have $\sum_{i=1}^{15} x_{i}=279$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{15} x_{i}^{2}=5524 .$ Calculate the standard deviation based on all 40 observations.

$\begin{array}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|} \hline X & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 \\ f & 4 & 9 & 16 & 14 & 11 & 6 \\ \hline \end{array}$

Find the standard deviation.

The mean and the standard deviation (s.d.) of $10$ observations are $20$ and $2$ resepectively. Each of these $10$ observations is multiplied by $\mathrm{p}$ and then reduced by $\mathrm{q}$, where $\mathrm{p} \neq 0$ and $\mathrm{q} \neq 0 .$ If the new mean and new s.d. become half of their original values, then $q$ is equal to
