Solution

f=   19  
fx =   55  
      
Mean = fx / f =   2.8947  
Mean square = f x^2 / f =   9.4211  
      
Varriance = (Mean square) - (Mean)^2      
      
Varriance = f x^2 - Mean^2 =   1.042  
Stadard Dev= Var =   1.021  
      

Values ( X ) Frequency(f) fx ( X^2) f x^2
1 2 2 1 2
2 4 8 4 16
3 8 24 9 72
4 4 16 16 64
