Vedclass · Answer

(C) Let the mean of the observations $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n$ be $\bar{x}$.Given that the mean deviation ($M$.$D$.) of $x_i$ is $\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} |x_i - \bar{x}| = 10$.Let the new observations be $y_i = \frac{2x_i + 5}{3}$.The mean of the new observations is $\bar{y} = \frac{2\bar{x} + 5}{3}$.The mean deviation of the new observations is given by:$	ext{New M.D.} = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} |y_i - \bar{y}|$$= \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} |\frac{2x_i + 5}{3} - \frac{2\bar{x} + 5}{3}|$$= \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} |\frac{2(x_i - \bar{x})}{3}|$$= \frac{2}{3} 	imes (\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} |x_i - \bar{x}|)$$= \frac{2}{3} 	imes 10 = \frac{20}{3}$.Thus,the correct option is $C$.

$x_i$	$15$	$21$	$27$	$30$	$35$
$f_i$	$3$	$5$	$6$	$7$	$8$

$x_i$	$2$	$4$	$6$	$8$	$10$
$f_i$	$1$	$2$	$3$	$2$	$1$

Class interval	$0-4$	$4-8$	$8-12$	$12-16$	$16-20$
Frequency	$4$	$6$	$8$	$5$	$2$

If $10$ is the mean deviation of $n$ observations $x_1, x_2, x_3, \ldots, x_n$,then the mean deviation of the observations $\frac{2x_1+5}{3}, \frac{2x_2+5}{3}, \frac{2x_3+5}{3}, \ldots, \frac{2x_n+5}{3}$ is
