(A) From the given data,we construct the following table:
Class $f_i$ $x_i$ $f_ix_i$ $(x_i - \bar{x})^2$ $f_i(x_i - \bar{x})^2$
$30-40$$3$$35$$105$$729$$2187$
$40-50$$7$$45$$315$$289$$2023$
$50-60$$12$$55$$660$$49$$588$
$60-70$$15$$65$$975$$9$$135$
$70-80$$8$$75$$600$$49$$392$
$80-90$$3$$85$$255$$529$$1587$
$90-100$$2$$95$$190$$1089$$2178$
Total$N=50$-$3100$-$9090$

Mean $\bar{x} = \frac{\sum f_ix_i}{N} = \frac{3100}{50} = 62$.
Variance $(\sigma^2) = \frac{1}{N} \sum f_i(x_i - \bar{x})^2 = \frac{9090}{50} = 181.8$.
Standard deviation $(\sigma) = \sqrt{181.8} \approx 13.48$.

The mean and standard deviation of a distribution of weights of a group of $20$ boys are $40 \ kg$ and $5 \ kg$ respectively. If two boys of weights $43 \ kg$ and $37 \ kg$ are excluded from this group,then the variance of the distribution of weights of the remaining group of boys is

The mean of $5$ observations is $7$. If four of these observations are $6, 7, 8, 10$ and one is missing,then the variance of all the five observations is:
