Calculate the sample variance and sample standard deviation. Show all your work.
| 14 | 18 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 21 |
| 30 | 18 | 22 | 80 | 25 | 22 |
Solution
mean= (14+30+18+18+17+22+18+80+19+25+21+22)/12 = 25.33
variance= ((14-25.33)2+(30-25.33)2?+(18-25.33)2?+(18-25.33)2?+(17-25.33)2?+(22-25.33)2?+(18-25.33)2?+(80-25.33)2?+(19-25.33)2?+(25-25.33)2?+(21-25.33)2?+(22-25.33)2? )/12 = 287.5
standard deviation= square root of variance = sqrt(287.5)= 16.956
