Answer:

Cannot create sample

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

4, -2, -6, 19, 6

Formula:

\text{Variance} = \displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}  

where x_i are data points, \bar{x} is the mean and n is the number of observations.  

Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}

Mean =\displaystyle\frac{21}{5} = 4.2

Sum of squares of differences = 0.04 + 38.44 + 104.04 + 219.04 + 3.24 = 364.8

s^2 = \dfrac{364.8}{4}} = 91.2

If we add an observation equal to the mean of given sample, then the mean and of new sample will not change.

New sample:

4, -2, -6, 19, 6, 4.2

Mean =\displaystyle\frac{25.2}{6} = 4.2

Sum of squares of differences = 0.04 + 38.44 + 104.04 + 219.04 + 3.24 + 0 = 364.8

s^2 = \dfrac{364.8}{5}} = 72.96

Thus, the variance of new sample changes.

Thus, it is not possible to create a sample.
