Answer:
Average = 16, standard deviation =
Step-by-step explanation:
15+12=27
27+(17+14)+22=27+31+22=80
80/5=16
Distance from 22 to 16=6, from 12 to 16=4, so deviation = 5
Answer:
Average yield per plant is 16 and standard deviation is 3.4058.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A homeowner has 5 zucchini plants in her garden.
Plant 1 2 3 4 5
Yield 15 12 17 14 22
Average : [tex]\frac{\text {Sum of all yields}}{\text{Total no. of plants}}[/tex]
Average : [tex]\frac{15+12+17+14+22}{5}[/tex]
Average : [tex]16[/tex]
Standard deviation =[tex]\sqrt{\frac{\sum(x_i-\bar{x})^2}{n}[/tex]
=[tex]\sqrt{\frac{(15-16)^2+(12-16)^2+(17-16)^2+(14-16)^2+(22-16)^2}{5}[/tex]
=[tex]3.4058[/tex]
Hence average yield per plant is 16 and standard deviation is 3.4058.
