see if it helps if not I am sorry
22 is the average of the numbers 20,17,24,18,29, and x is what I guess the qusetion is
count them
6 numbers
(20+17+24+18+29+x)/6=22
(108+x)/6=22
times both sides by6 to clear fraction
108+x=132
minus 108 from both sides
x=24
You gotta show a picture buddy, good luck
Answer:
option (a) It will be closer to 30 than to 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
For sample 1:
n₁ = 10
variance, s₁² = 20
For sample 2:
n₂ = 15
variance, s₂² = 30
Now,
The pooled variance is calculated using the formula,

on substituting the given respective values, we get

or
= 26.0869
Hence,
the pooled variance will be closer to 30 than to 20
Therefore,
The correct answer is option (a) It will be closer to 30 than to 20
