Two sets each of 20 observations, have the same standard derivation 5. The first set has a mean 17 and the second a mean 22. Determine the standard deviation of the set obtained by combining the given two sets.
Two sets each of 20 observations, have the same standard derivation 5. The first set has a mean 17 and the second a mean 22. Determine the standard deviation of the set obtained by combining the given two sets.
Given, $n_{1}=20, \sigma_{1}=5, \bar{x}_{1}=17$ and $n_{2}=20, \sigma_{2}=5, \bar{x}_{2}=22$
We know that, $\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{n_{1} s_{1}^{2}+n_{2} s_{2}^{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}+\frac{n_{1} n_{2}\left(\bar{x}_{1}-\bar{x}_{2}\right)^{2}}{\left(n_{1}+n_{2}\right)^{2}}}$
$\begin{array}{l}=\sqrt{\frac{20 \times(5)^{2}+20 \times(5)^{2}}{20+20}+\frac{20 \times 20(17-22)^{2}}{(20+20)^{2}}} \\=\sqrt{\frac{1000}{40}+\frac{400 \times 25}{1600}}=\sqrt{25+\frac{25}{4}}=\sqrt{\frac{125}{4}}=\sqrt{31.25}=5.59\end{array}$
