AN IMPORTANT QUESTION
1. Calculate the total mean when E(x-5)=226, N=38
Mean(x-5)=226/38
=5.95
Therefore, Mean(x)=5.95+5
=11.O

2. Calculate the total variance when E(x-2)^2=200, E(x-2)=22,N=5
Variance(x-2)=(2OO/5)-(22/5)^2
=20.6
Therefore, Variance(x)=20.6
Note: In this case we do not have to add 2 like in question 1.
So, Var(x)=Var(x-a)=Var(x+a) unlike the case in mean

Also,S.D(x)=S.D(x-a)=S.D(x=a)

3. The standard deviation of the three numbers a,b,c is 3.2
a. State the standard deviation of the three numbers 3a,3b,3c.
b. State the standard deviation of the three numbers a+2,b+2,c+2
c. State the standard deviation of the three numbers 2a+5,2b+5,2c+5

Ans: a. 3.2 X 3 = 9.6 b. 3.2 c. 3.2 X 2 = 6.4

Hope, you’ve understood.

wat do u mean by S.D(x=a)?
did u mean S.D(x+a) ?

Yes, i meant S.D. (x+a)!! Sorry!!

Ahan.. this is not stats made easier.. Stats could only be made easier by removing perms and combs from the paper

Permutation is simply way of arrngement, and combination is way of selection, read the question carefully figure it out wt is it askin u to do.??? do arrngment or do selecton ..??? sometymes both of them r together..!!

Actually distinguishing between them isn't that difficult. Just read the question and If u got a grade in English you should be able to identify. However the problem comes when the performance of the question comes.. I always leave 1 part lik multply by 2 or these are to b added not multiplied. Nd know I have yet to see com with repetition.If I remember correctly cuz have been out of touch for so long.

simple permutations and combinations are fine if u practice them a little, i find the "box approach" very useful. i can solve any question on that. but what i don't get, at all, is permutations and combinations with repetition. the syllabus clearly states u don't need to know them, my teacher said you don't need to know them, but somebody pointed them out in recent papers. it doesn't make any sense!

What is this box approach method?
and for the comb and perm with repetition i just searched it up in the internet and memorised the formulas just incase it comes, and yea its not in the syllabus of 2007
