In the diagram below, DE is parallel to XY What is the value of y?

<span>The variance method is as follows.

-Sum the squares of the values in data set, and then divide by the number of values in data set
- From that, subtract the square of the mean (add all values and divide by number of values in the data set)

Our variance is

<span> $\displaystyle\sigma^2 = \frac{2^2 + 5^2 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{2 + 5 + m}{3}\right)^2$

Since variance has to be 14, we set $\sigma^2 = 14$ and solve for m

$14= \frac{4 + 25 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{7 + m}{3}\right)^2\ \Rightarrow \\ \\
14 = \frac{29}{3} + \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(7+m)^2 \\ \\
14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(49 + 14m + m^2) \\ \\
14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{49}{9}- \frac{14}{9}m- \frac{1}{9}m^2 \\ \\
0 = \frac{-88}{9} -\frac{14}{9}m + \frac{2}{9}m^2
$

quadratic formula

$m = \displaystyle\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a} \\
m = \frac{-(-\frac{14}{9}) \pm \sqrt{\left(-\frac{14}{9}\right)^2 - 4(2/9)(-88/9)} }{2(2/9)} \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{196}{81} + \frac{704}{81} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{900}{81} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{100}{9} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \frac{10}{3} }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = 11, -4$

-4 doesnt' work as it is not a positive integer

m = 11
