what is the standard deviation. show work.
say we have the following observations 15,22,28,32,44,49
Solution:
Given that,
15,22,28,32,44,49
a )The mean of sample is
x/n = ( 15+22+28+32+44+49/ 6)
= 31.67
The sample mean is 31.67
Sample standard deviation is s
s = 1/(n-1)(x - )2
= 1/5 (15 - 31.67 )2+ (22 - 31.67 )2+ (28 - 31.67 )2+ (32- 31.67 )2 +( 44 -31.67)2+( 49 -31.67)2
= 167.46666666667
=12.94
The sample standard deviation is 12.94
