Solution

A )Given that

x	x²
30600	936360000
29900	894010000
37500	1406250000
29200	852640000
25100	630010000
37400	1398760000
26100	681210000
35400	1253160000
31500	992250000
34600	1197160000
33200	1102240000
23100	533610000
25200	635040000
38000	1444000000
x=436800	x²=13956700000

The sample mean is

Mean = (x / n) )

=30600+29900+37500+29200+25100+37400+26100+35400+31500+34600+33200+23100+25200+38000 /14

=436800 /14

=31200

The sample standard is S

S =( x² ) - (( x)² / n ) n -1

=13956700000-(436800)21413

=13956700000-1362816000013

=32854000013

=25272307.6923

=5027.157

Co-efficient of Variation (Sample) =S / ⋅100%

=5027.157 / 31200⋅100%

=16.11%

Co-efficient of Variation = 16.1%

B ) Given that

x	x2
89	7921
78	6084
85	7225
81	6561
76	5776
97	9409
70	4900
73	5329
88	7744
76	5776
99	9801
x=912	x²=76526

The sample mean is

Mean = (x / n) )

=89+78+85+81+76+97+70+73+88+76+99 /11

=912/11

The sample standard is S

S =( x² ) - (( x)² / n ) n -1

=76526-(912)²11 /10

=76526-75613.0909/10

=912.9091/10

=91.2909

=9.5546

Co-efficient of Variation (Sample) =S/ ⋅100%

=9.5546 /82.9091⋅100%

=11.52%

Co-efficient of Variation = 11.5%

B sets is the above sets of sample data has the smaller spread

Each of the following three data sets represents the IQ scores of a random sample of adults. IQ scores are known to have a mean and median of 100. For each data set, determine the sample standard deviation. Then recompute the sample standard deviation assuming that the individual whose IQ is 108 is accidentally recorded as 180. For each sample size, state what happens to the standard deviation. Comment on the role that the number of observations plays in resistance....
