The standard deviation<u> </u><u>INCREASES</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard deviation is used to show how the points of the data deviate from the mean. The formulae for deriving standard deviation is attached. As seen from the formulae, the greater the variance of the data from the mean, the higher the Standard Deviation.
The mean of the given data points is $103.4. $450 is way off from this mean meaning that there is a large variance in this data point.
Options:
Who is right, and why?
a. Neither Kurt nor Maria is right, because 3,500 should be used instead of 3,600.
b. Kurt is right, because finding 1/5 of 3,600 is not a good way to approximate 21% of 3,585.
c. Maria is right, because finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 is not a good way to approximate 21% of 3,585.
d. Both Kurt and Maria are right, because 3,585 should be rounded up to 3,600, and 21% of this amount can be approximated by either finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 or by finding 1/5 of 3,600.
Answer:
d. Both Kurt and Maria are right, because 3,585 should be rounded up to 3,600, and 21% of this amount can be approximated by either finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 or by finding 1/5 of 3,600.

Given
Required [Missing from the question]
Who is correct and why?
First, we calculate the actual amount collected.
--- approximate
Next, determine the estimate (round 3585 to 3600 and 21% to 20%)
Next, calculate Kurt and Maria's estimates
<em>Hence, Kurt and Maria are correct because of option (d)</em>
