Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given set of N elements:

{x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ}

The mean is given by:

[tex]M = \frac{x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_n}{N}[/tex]

And the variance is given by:

[tex]v = \frac{(x_1 - M)^2 + (x_2 - M)^2 + ... + (x_n - M)^2}{N}[/tex]

Then for our set:

{70, 80 ,75, 75, 80}

We have 5 elements, then N = 5

The first thing we need to find is the mean.

[tex]M = \frac{70 + 80 + 75 + 75 + 80}{5} = 76[/tex]

Then the variance will be:

[tex]v = \frac{(70 - 76)^2 + (80 - 76)^2 + (75 - 76)^2 + (75 - 76)^2 + (80 - 76)^2}{5} = 14[/tex]

The correct option is C, 14.
