In a class of 60 students, mathematics examination was conducted. All the students obtained 20 marks each. What would be the mean and standard deviation of marks in mathematics?
Show Hint
- 1200 and 20
- 120 and 1
- 20 and 0
- 20 and 60
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Calculate the Mean.
All 60 students scored 20 marks.
Mean \( = \frac{{Sum of all scores}}{{Number of students}} = \frac{60 \times 20}{60} = 20 \)
Step 2: Calculate the Standard Deviation.
Since all students have the same score (20), there is no variation. Standard Deviation \( = 0 \)

- Let \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) respectively be the maximum and the minimum values of the function \( f(\theta) = 4\left(\sin^4\left(\frac{7\pi}{2} - \theta\right) + \sin^4(11\pi + \theta)\right) - 2\left(\sin^6\left(\frac{3\pi}{2} - \theta\right) + \sin^6(9\pi - \theta)\right) \). Then \( \alpha + 2\beta \) is equal to :

Eight students (P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, and W) are playing musical chairs. The figure indicates their order of position at the start of the game. They play the game by moving forward in a circle in the clockwise direction.
After the 1st round, the 4th student behind P leaves the game.
After the 2nd round, the 5th student behind Q leaves the game.
After the 3rd round, the 3rd student behind V leaves the game.
After the 4th round, the 4th student behind U leaves the game.
Who all are left in the game after the 4th round?
