4. The marks, \(x\) out of 100 , scored by 30 candidates in an examination were as follows:
5192021232531373941
42444751565760616265
677071737577818298100
Given that \(\sum x = 1600\) and \(\sum x ^ { 2 } = 102400\),
  1. find the median, the mean and the standard deviation of these marks. The marks were scaled to give modified scores, \(y\), using the formula \(y = \frac { 4 x } { 5 } + 20\).
  2. Find the median, the mean and the standard deviation of the modified scores. \section*{STATISTICS 1 (A) TEST PAPER 1 Page 2}
