Mean deviation for n observations x1, x2, ...... , xn from their mean x is given by:

  1. $\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{i}=1}(\text{x}_\text{i}-\bar{\text{x}})$

  2. $\frac{1}{\text{n}}\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{i}=1}|\text{x}_\text{i}-\bar{\text{x}}|$

  3. $\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{i}=1}(\text{x}_\text{i}-\bar{\text{x}})^2$

  4. $\frac{1}{\text{n}}\sum\limits^{\text{n}}_{\text{i}=1}(\text{x}_\text{i}-\bar{\text{x}})^2$

Let x1, x2, ..., xn be n observations and $\bar{\text{x}}$ be their arithmetic mean. The formula for the standard deviation is given by:

  1. $\sum(\text{x}_\text{i}-\bar{\text{x}})^2$

  2. $\frac{\sum(\text{x}_\text{i}-\bar{\text{x}})^2}{\text{x}}$

  3. $\sqrt{\frac{\sum(\text{x}_\text{i}-\bar{\text{x}})^2}{\text{n}}}$

  4. $\frac{\sum\text{x}_\text{i}^2}{\text{n}}-(\bar{\text{x}})^{-2}$

Mean and standard deviation of 100 observations were found to be 40 and 10, respectively. If at the time of calculation two observations were wrongly taken as 30 and 70 in place of 3 and 27 respectively, find the correct standard deviation.
