4081 16654561
4962 24621444
4640 21529600
5064 25644096
5528 30558784
∑x=41349 ∑x2=177855643

a ) Median :
Observations in the ascending order are :
3038,3306,3317,3383,4030,4081,4640,4962,5064,5528

Here, n=10 is even.

M=Value of(n/2)thobservation+Value of(n2+1)thobservation2

=Value of(10/2)thobservation+Value of(10/2+1)thobservation2

=Value of5thobservation+Value of6thobservation2

=4030+40812

=4055.5

b ) Sample Variance S2=∑x2-(∑x)2nn-1

=177855643-(41349)210/9

=177855643-170973980.1/9

=6881662.9/9

=764629.2111
