Explanation
Given series:- $$a, 2a, 3a, ....., 50a$$
Median $$= \cfrac{25a + 26a}{2} = 25.5 a$$
Mean deviation about median $$= 50 \quad \left( \text{Given} \right)$$
Mean deviation $$= \cfrac{\sum_{i = 1}^{50}{\left| {x}_{i} - 25.5a \right|}}{50}$$
$$\therefore \cfrac{24.5a + 23.5a + 22.5a + ..... + 23.5a + 24.5a}{50} = 50$$
$$\Rightarrow a + 3a + 5a + ..... + 47a + 49a = 2500$$
$$\Rightarrow \cfrac{25}{2} \left( 2a + \left( 25 - 1 \right) 2a \right) = 2500$$
$$\Rightarrow 2a \times 25 = 200$$
$$\Rightarrow a = \cfrac{200}{50} = 4$$

Explanation
Stndard deviation, $$\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{\sum x_i^2}{N}-(\bar{x})^2}$$
$$\therefore \bar{x} = \dfrac{\sum x_i}{N}$$
$$= \dfrac{1 + 3 +5 + ...(2n-1)}{n}$$
$$= \dfrac{\dfrac{n}{2}[1+2n-1]}{n}$$
$$=\dfrac{n^2}{n} = n$$
Again, $$\sum x_i^2 = 1^2 + 3^2 + 5^2 + ...(2n - 1)^2$$
$$=\sum (2n-1)^2$$
$$=\sum(4n^2 - 4n+1)$$
$$= 4\sum n^2 - 4\sum n + \sum 1$$
$$= \dfrac{4n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6} - \dfrac{4n(n+1)}{2}+n$$
$$= n \left[ \dfrac{2}{3} (n + 1)(2n + 1) - 2(n+1)+1\right]$$
$$= \dfrac{n}{3} [2(2n^2+3n+1) - 6(n+1) + 3]$$
$$= \dfrac{n}{3} [ 4n^2 + 6n + 2 - 6n - 6 + 3]$$
$$= \dfrac{n}{3} [4n^2 - 1]$$
$$\therefore \delta = \sqrt{\dfrac{n(4n^2 - 1)}{3n} - n^2}$$
$$= \sqrt{\dfrac{4n^2-1}{3}-n^2}$$
$$= \sqrt{\dfrac{4n^2-1-3n^2}{3}}$$
$$= \sqrt{\dfrac{n^2 - 1}{3}}$$

Explanation
Given data $$6,5,9,13,12,8,10$$ Mean of the given data $$(\bar{x})$$
$$=\dfrac{6+5+9+13+12+8+10}{7}$$
$$=\dfrac{63}{7}=9$$
The deviation of the respective data from the mean i.e. $$(x_i-\bar{x})$$ are
$$6-9,5-9,9-9,13-9,12-9,8-9,10-9$$
$$(x_i-\bar{x})=-3,-4,0,4,3,-1,1$$
$$(x_1-\bar{x})^2=9,16,0,16,9,1,1$$
$$\displaystyle \sum^7_{i=i} (x_1-\bar{x})^2=9+16+0+16+9+1+1=52$$
$$\therefore$$ standard deviation $$(\sigma)$$
$$\displaystyle =\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n}\sum^7_{i=1} (x_1-\bar{x})^2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{52}{7}}$$

Explanation
$$\textbf{Step -1: Find the standard deviation.}$$
$$\text{It is given, }$$
$$\text{Mean, }\overline{x}=50,$$
$$n=10\text{ and }$$
$$\sum(x-\overline{x})^2=250$$
$$\therefore\text{Standard deviation}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum(x-\overline{x})^2}{n}}$$
$$=\sqrt{\dfrac{250}{10}}$$
$$=5$$
$$\textbf{Step -2: Find the coefficient of variance.}$$
$$\text{Coefficient of variation}=\dfrac{\text{Standard deviation}}{\text{Mean}}\times100\%.$$
$$=\dfrac{5}{50}\times100\%$$
$$=10\%$$

$$E[x^2]=0+1^2\cdot \displaystyle \frac{2}{10}+2^2\cdot \frac{3}{10}+3^2\cdot \frac{4}{10}=\frac{[2+12+36]}{10}=5.0$$
$$E[x]=0+\displaystyle \frac{2}{10}+2\cdot \frac{3}{10}+3\cdot \frac{4}{10}=\frac{[2+6+12]}{10}=2$$
$$\therefore$$ Var (x) $$= E[x^2] - E[x]^2 = 5-2^2=1$$

$$\overline{\mathrm{y}}=4$$
$$\displaystyle \frac{\Sigma \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}}{5}=2, \Sigma \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}=10;\Sigma \mathrm{y}_{\mathrm{i}}=20$$
$$
\sigma_{\mathrm{x}}^{2}=(\frac{1}{5}\Sigma \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2})-(\overline{x})^{2}=\frac{1}{5}(\Sigma \mathrm{x}_{1}^{2})-4

$$\sigma_{\mathrm{y}}^{2}=(\frac{1}{5}\Sigma \mathrm{y}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2})-(\overline{y})^{2}=\frac{1}{5}(\Sigma \mathrm{y}_{1}^{2})-4$$

$$\sigma_{\mathrm{z}}^{2}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{10}(\Sigma \mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2}+\Sigma \mathrm{y}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2})-(\frac{\overline{\mathrm{x}}+\overline{\mathrm{y}}}{2})=\frac{1}{10}(40+105)-9=\frac{145-90}{10}=\frac{55}{10}=\frac{11}{2}$$
