Any clues about this guys?

It helps to roughly plot this line on the graph by plugging values
For eg :
when x= 0 y = 0
when x= 10 y = 1
when x= -10 y = -1
and so on...
The line passes through quands 1 and 3
Quandrants 2 and 4 DO NOT contain any points on the line x=10y

What is the OA?
IMO - OA - E
St. Deviation is the amount of spread from the mean.
Mean of A = 70
Mean of B = 0
Mean of C = 40
Since a new number 100 is getting added...it would cause the spread to increase the greatest in Set B and the smallest in Set A.

Unit's digit
What is the units digit of (17)^12−(1973)^9?
0
2
4
6
8
OA = 2
The unit's digit of the first term will be 1
and the unit's digit of the second term will be 3 .
1- 3 = > 11 (Assuming carry over ) - 3 = 8
Can any expert explain how this is incorrect?
