The following data are the distances between 20 retail stores and a large distribution center. The distances are in miles. 29;37;38;40;58;67;68;69;76;86;87;95;96;96;99;106;112;127;145;150Use a graphing calculator or computer to find the standard deviation and round to the nearest tenth.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Standarddeviation=34.5

Step by step solution

01

Content Introduction

A "typical" divergence from the mean is indicated by the standard deviation. Because it returns to the data set's original units of measure, it's a common measure of variability.

02

Content Explanation

We are given set of values:

29;37;38;40;58;67;68;69;76;86;87;95;96;96;99;106;112;127;145;150

The total number of values are 20

Let us first find out mean.

Mean=x→=∑i=1nxin

here, n=20

x→=∑i=1nxinx⇶Ä=∑i=1n(29+37+38+40+58+67+68+69+76+86+87+95+96+96+99+106+112+127+145+150)20x⇶Ä=84.05

Standard deviation is

s=∑i=1n(xi-x⇶Ä)2n-1s=22636.9519s=34.5

The University of California has two criteria used to set admission standards for freshmen to be admitted to a college in the UC system:

a. Students' GPAs and scores on standardized tests (SATs and ACTs) are entered into a formula that calculates an "admissions index" score. The admissions index score is used to set eligibility standards intended to meet the goal of admitting the top 12%of high school students in the state. In this context, what percentile does the top 12%represent?

b. Students whoseGPAs are at or above the 96th percentile of all students at their high school are eligible (called eligible in the local context), even if they are not in the top 12%of all students in the state. What percentage of students from each high school are "eligible in the local context"?

Park city is broken down into six voting districts. The table shows the percent of the total registered voter
