Answer any 3 questions. Time 30 minutes
1. The standard deviation should be smaller compared to values calculated from 05
other than the mean.
2. Define moments in the context of statistics, How can the central moments be 05
calculated from raw moments? (Give the relation only not prove)?
3. Two cricket players, Player A and Player B, have the following scores (in runs) 05
over 5 matches: Player A: 25, 35, 45, 55, 65; Player B: 20, 50, 60, 70, 100
Which player would you like to recommend for the next match? Do you feel
average is enough? Justify.
A professor recorded the marks of 10 students in a Basic Statistics exam. The 05
77, 92, 81, 75, 88, 84
marks are: 72, 85, 90, 68,
Using this dataset, calculate the following: Range, MD(mean), variance and
standard deviation.
