Answer:

The standard deviation of the data set is \sigma = 12.7906.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Standard Deviation is a measure of how spread out numbers are. Its symbol is σ (the greek letter sigma)

To find the standard deviation of the following data set

\begin{array}{cccccccc}83&87&90&92&93&100&104&111\\115&121&&&&&&\end{array}

we use the following formula

                                             \sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum{\left(x_i - \overline{X}\right)^2 }}{n-1} }

Step 1: Find the mean \left( \overline{X} \right).

The mean of a data set is the sum of the terms divided by the total number of terms. Using math notation we have:

                                     Mean = \frac{Sum ~ of ~ terms}{Number ~ of ~ terms}

Mean = \frac{Sum ~ of ~ terms}{Number ~ of ~ terms}=\frac{83+87+90+92+93+100+104+111+115+121}{10} \\\\Mean = \frac{996}{10} =\frac{498}{5}=99.6

Step 2: Create the below table.

Step 3: Find the sum of numbers in the last column to get.

\sum{\left(x_i - \overline{X}\right)^2} = 1472.4

Step 4: Calculate σ using the above formula.

\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum{\left(x_i - \overline{X}\right)^2 }}{n-1} }       = \sqrt{ \frac{ 1472.4 }{ 10 - 1} } \approx 12.7906

X/2 = 4/16<br><br> solve for x<br><br>Also: if possible/ any please show work!
lana66690 [7]
<span>X/2 = 4/16

This is where you would use cross-multiplication.
Multiply the x with 16 and the 2 with 4.

16x = 8

Now divide everything by 16.
x = 0.5</span>
