    Solution:

    Let x1,x2,,x20 be 20 observations. Then,

               uncorrected xi=20×10=200 and 120xi2(10)2=4

     uncorrected xi2=2080

        Corrected xi=2009+11=202

         Corrected xi2=208092+112=2120

      Correct variance =120 Corrected xi Corrected xi202

                                      =212020202202=106102.01=3.99
