For the data set below, compute the standard deviation. Round to the nearest hundredth. 2, 3, 5, 8 2.03 2.20 2.6 4.5
Accepted Solution
A:
[tex]The \ standard \ deviation =
\sqrt{ \frac{1}{n} \sum ( x_{i} - \mu )^2 }
\\ where: \\
n \ is\ the \ number \ of \ elements \\
x_{i} \ element \ number \ i \\
\mu \ is \ the \ mean \ of \ the \ elements
[/tex]
The elements are : 2,3,5,8,2.03,2.20,2.6,4.5 n = 8
