compute the range and sample standard deviation for strength

compute the range and sample standard deviation for strength of the concrete (in psi)

Solution

A)

Here, we have          
          
Maximum =    4130      
Minimum =    2930      

Range = max - min =    1200   [ANSWER]

******************

B)  


Getting the mean, X,          
          
X = Sum(x) / n          
Summing the items, Sum(x) =    29570      
As n =    8      
Thus,          
X =    3696.25      
          
Setting up tables,          
x   x - X   (x - X)^2  
3920   223.75   50064.0625  
4130   433.75   188139.0625  
3500   -196.25   38514.0625  
3100   -596.25   355514.0625  
2930   -766.25   587139.0625  
3810   113.75   12939.0625  
4130   433.75   188139.0625  
4050   353.75   125139.0625  
Thus, Sum(x - X)^2 =    1545587.5      
          
Thus, as           
          
s^2 = Sum(x - X)^2 / (n - 1)          
          
As n =    8      
          
s^2 =    220798.2143      
          
Thus,          
          
s =    469.8917048   [ANSWER, STANDARD DEVIATION]
