If $\sum_{i = 1}^9 (x_i - 5) = 9$ and $\sum_{i = 1}^9 (x_i - 5)^2 = 45$,then the standard deviation of the $9$ items $x_1, x_2, ..., x_9$ is:

For a data consisting of $15$ observations $x_i$,$i=1, 2, 3, \ldots, 15$,the following results are obtained: $\sum_{i=1}^{15} x_i = 170$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{15} x_i^2 = 2830$. If one of the observations,namely $20$,was found to be wrong and was replaced by its correct value $30$,then the corrected variance is:

If the variance of observations $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n$ is $\sigma^2$,then the variance of $ax_1, ax_2, \dots, ax_n$,where $a \neq 0$,is

The mean and standard deviation of some data for the time taken to complete a test are calculated with the following results:
Number of observations $= 25$,mean $= 18.2 \text{ seconds}$,standard deviation $= 3.25 \text{ s}$.
Further,another set of $15$ observations $x_{1}, x_{2}, \ldots, x_{15}$,also in seconds,is now available and we have $\sum_{i=1}^{15} x_{i} = 279$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{15} x_{i}^{2} = 5524$. Calculate the standard deviation based on all $40$ observations.
