Correct Option - 3
Detailed Solution:

x ¯ = 1 5 , σ = 2 σ 2 = 4

x 1 + x 2 + . . . . + x 5 0 = 1 5 * 5 0 = 7 5 0

4 = x 1 2 + x 2 2 + . . . . . + x 5 0 2 5 0 2 2 5

Let a be the correct observation and b is the incorrect observation then a + b = 70 and

1 6 = 7 5 b + a 5 0

= 5 0 * 2 2 9 + 6 0 2 1 0 2 5 0 2 5 6 = 4 3

  ? g : A A           such that g (f (x) = f (x)

Case I : If x is even then g (x) = x . (i)

Case II : If x is odd then g (x + 1) = x + 1 . (ii)

From (i) & (ii), g (x) = x, when x is even

So total no. of functions = 105 × 1 = 105
