Chapter 3: Q.3.68. (page 113)

In Exercises , we $3.65 - 3.70$ have provided simple data sets for you to practice the basics of finding measures of variation . For each data set determine.
a) Range
b) sample standard deviation
2,5,0,-1

Short Answer

Expert verified

$a) R a n g e = 6 b) s a m p l e s \tan d a r d d e v i a t i o n = 2.6458$

Step by step solution

Step 1. Given information.

We have given data : $2, 5, 0, - 1$

Step 2. Range of the data.

$R a n g e = M a x . v a l u e - M i n . v a l u e R a n g e = 5 - (- 1) R a n g e = 5 + 1 R a n g e = 6$

Step 3. Mean of the data.

$\sqrt{\frac{\underset{}{鈭�} {x - x)^{2}}{n - 1}} M e a n, x = \frac{\underset{}{鈭�} x}{n} M e a n = \frac{2 + 5 + 0 + (- 1)}{4} M e a n = \frac{6}{4} M e a n = 1.5 s a m p i e s i z e, n = 4$

Step 4. Standard deviation of the data.

Variable $x$	Deviation from mean $x - x$	Squared deviation ${(x - x)}^{2}$
$2$	$0.5$	$0.25$
$5$	$3.5$	$12.25$
$0$	$- 1.5$	$2.25$
$- 1$	$- 2.5$	$6.25$
		$21.0$

Thus, the standard deviation is

$s = \sqrt{\frac{\underset{}{鈭�} {(x_{1} - x)}^{2}}{n - 1}} = \sqrt{\frac{21.0}{4 - 1}} = \sqrt{7} = 2.6458$
