Find the variance of the numbers k k 1 k 2 - JAMB Mathematics 1998 Question
Find the variance of the numbers k, k+1, k+2,
A
\(\frac{2}{3}\)
B
1
C
k + 1
D
(k + 1)2
correct option: a
mean (x) = (\frac{\sum x}{N})
= k + k + 1 + k + 3
= (\frac{3k + 3}{3})
= k + 1
(\begin{array}{c|c} X & (X -X) & (X -X)^2\ \hline k & -1 & 1 \ k + 1 & 0 & 0\ k + 2 & 1 \ \hline & & 2\end{array})
Variance (52) = (\frac{\sum (x - x)^2}{N})
= (\frac{2}{3})
