If the variance of the data $2, 3, 5, 8, 12$ is $\sigma^2$ and the mean deviation from the median for this data is $M$,then $\sigma^2 - M =$

In a frequency distribution,if $d_i$ is the deviation of observations from $a$,and the mean is given by $\text{Mean} = a + \frac{\Sigma f_i d_i}{\Sigma f_i}$,then what is $a$?

Let $\bar{x}, M$ and $\sigma^2$ be respectively the mean,mode and variance of $n$ observations $x_1, x_2, ..., x_n$ and $d_i = -x_i - a, i = 1, 2, ..., n$,where $a$ is any number. Statement $I$: Variance of $d_1, d_2, ..., d_n$ is $\sigma^2$. Statement $II$: Mean and mode of $d_1, d_2, ..., d_n$ are $-\bar{x} - a$ and $-M - a$,respectively.

Marks obtained by all the students of class $12$ are presented in a frequency distribution with classes of equal width. Let the median of this grouped data be $14$ with median class interval $12-18$ and median class frequency $12$. If the number of students whose marks are less than $12$ is $18$,then the total number of students is

For the set $A = \{x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5\}$,the variance is $4$ and the mean is $2$. For the set $B = \{y_1, y_2, y_3, y_4, y_5\}$,the variance is $5$ and the mean is $4$. Then,the variance of $A \cup B$ is

If the median and the range of four numbers $\{x, y, 2x + y, x - y\}$,where $0 < y < x < 2y$,are $10$ and $28$ respectively,then the mean of the numbers is
