If the mean of 20 observations, namely x₁, x₂, x₃, ..., x₂₀ is 1·414, then what is the value of Σᵢ₌₁²⁰ 100(2xᵢ + 4)?
Answer
The correct answer is C: 15248. Mean = (Σxᵢ)/20 = 1.414, so Σxᵢ = 28.28. Then Σ 100(2xᵢ + 4) = 100[2Σxᵢ + 4·20] = 100[2(28.28) + 80] = 100[56.56 + 80] = 100(136.56) = 13656.
- A.24168
- B.20828
- C.15248✓ Correct
- D.13656
Mean = (Σxᵢ)/20 = 1.414, so Σxᵢ = 28.28. Then Σ 100(2xᵢ + 4) = 100[2Σxᵢ + 4·20] = 100[2(28.28) + 80] = 100[56.56 + 80] = 100(136.56) = 13656.
