A frequency distribution table is given, showing the frequencies of the ages of the best actresses who won the Oscar at that time.

The table consists of 7 class intervals.

The actual standard deviation value is 11.5 years.

Thestandard deviation of a frequency distribution is computed using the given formula:

$s=\sqrt{\frac{n\left[鈭�\left(f脳x^2\right)\right]-{\left[鈭�\left(f脳x\right)\right]}^2}{n\left(n-1\right)}}$

Here, f represents the frequencies;

x represents the midpoints of the class intervals;

n represents the total frequency.

The computations are done using the table as shown below:

Therefore, the following values are computed as follows:

$$\begin{gathered} 鈭�\left(f脳x\right)=3151.5 \\ {\left[鈭�\left(f脳x\right)\right]}^2=9931952.25 \\ 鈭�\left(f脳x^2\right)=128001.8 \end{gathered}$$

The total count of observation n is $鈭�f=87$.

Thus, the value of standard deviation is as given below:

$$\begin{gathered} s=\sqrt{\frac{n\left[鈭�\left(f脳x^2\right)\right]-{\left[鈭�\left(f脳x\right)\right]}^2}{n\left(n-1\right)}} \\ =\sqrt{\frac{87\left(128001.8\right)-{\left(3151.5\right)}^2}{87\left(87-1\right)}} \\ =12.69 \end{gathered}$$

The computed value of the standard deviation is equal to12.69 years.

The actual value of standard deviation is 11.5 years.

The calculated value equal to 12.69 years isclose to the actual mean value of 11.5 years.
