4. Sam has 6 rose bushes. He counted the flowers on each of them. There are 8, 2, 5,
4, 11 and 9. Find the Standard Deviation. Is 13 a "Usual” number of flowers?

Respuesta :

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

SD=8+2+5+4+11+9÷6

13=10+9+20÷6

13=19+20÷6

13=39÷6

13=6.5-False=No

13 is not a usual number. A further solution of the given query is provided below.

Given:

Number of observations = 6

Series 8, 2, 5, 4, 11, 9

The Mean will be:

= [tex]\frac{Sum \ of \ observation}{Total \ number \ of \ observations}[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

= [tex]\frac{8+2+5+4+11+9}{6}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{32}{6}[/tex]

= [tex]6.5[/tex]

Now,

The Standard deviation will be:

= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{|x-\bar x|^2}{n} }[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(1.5)^2+(4.5)^2+(1.5)^2+(2.5)^2+(4.5)^2+(2.5)^2}{6} }[/tex]

= [tex]3.0956[/tex]

13 is not within the range of standard deviation. Thus it is not a usual number.
