Consider the following sample data:
33 | 38 | 25 | 46 | 31 | 35 |
c. Calculate the sample variance. (Round
your intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and
final answer to 2 decimal places.)
d. Calculate the sample standard deviation.
(Round your intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal
places and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
****Need this correct
Solution:
Given that,
n = 6
x | dx = x - A = x -36 | dx2 |
38 | 2 | 4 |
38 | 2 | 4 |
25 | -11 | 121 |
46 | 10 | 100 |
31 | -5 | 25 |
35 | -1 | 1 |
x = 213 | ( dx) = - 3 | ( dx )2 = 255 |
c ) Sample Varianve s2 = ( dx2 - ( ( dx)2 / n ) n -1
= ( 255 - ( (- 3)2 / 6 ) 5 )
= (255-1.5 /5)
= 253.5 / 5
= 50.70
Sample Variance = 50.70
Sample Standard Deviation s = ( dx2 - ( ( dx)2 / n ) n -1
= ( 255 - ( (- 3)2 / 6 ) 5 )
= (255-1.5 /5)
= 253.5 / 5
= 50.7
Sample Sandard Deviation s = 7.12
