  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $7$
  • C
    $\frac{91}{15}$
  • D

The outcome of each of $30$ items was observed; $10$ items gave an outcome $\frac{1}{2} - d$ each,$10$ items gave an outcome $\frac{1}{2}$ each,and the remaining $10$ items gave an outcome $\frac{1}{2} + d$ each. If the variance of this outcome data is $\frac{4}{3}$,then $|d|$ equals:

If the total number of observations is $n = 20$,$\sum x_i = 1000$ and $\sum x_i^2 = 84000$,then the variance of the distribution is
