-
- Correct Option: C
Explanation:
Seventh observation = (7×11-6×12)=5 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- D is the correct option.
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 5 it is it
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Let x be the summation of all observation
then, x/6=12 => x=72
now sum of new observation is be y
then, y/7=11 (as according to question )
which gives y=77 ,
therefore new observation =(77-72)=5 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 5.. ( a+b+c+d+e+f)/6=12... a+b+c+d+e+f=72.. (a+b+c+d+e+f+g)/7=11 .. 72+g=77.. g=5(ans)
- 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
