Standard deviation is calculated by
1. calculate mean, m
2. calculate deviation of EACH entry of data set from the mean, i.e.
d=(x-m)
3. calculate mean of square of deviations (d^2)/n to get variance,v
4. take square-root of variance to get standard deviation.
For example,
To find the standard deviation of data set {3,7,8}
1. mean=(3+7+8)/3=6
2. deviations, di={3-6,7-6,8-6}={-3,1,2}
3. squares of deviations, di^2={9,1,4}
4. mean of squares of deviations=(9+1+4)/3=14/3
Standard deviation=sqrt(14/3)=2.16
For the given data set, if you follow the above steps, you would get
sum=400
mean=400/9
variance (mean square of deviations)=8246/81
standard deviation=sqrt(8246/81)=sqrt(8246)/9
Let the length of the radius = r feet.
Diameter = 2r = 2 x 6.8 = 13.6 feet
Circumference = 2
r = 2 x 3.14 x 6.8 = 42.704 feet = approx. 42.7 feet
The answer is 1680. you change 10 ft to 120 in and then multiply it by 14
