Answer:

Mean age: 48

Standard deviation: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Mean

The formula for Mean = Sum of terms/ Number of terms

Number of terms

= 42 + 54 + 50 + 54 + 50 + 42 + 46 + 46 + 48+ 48/ 10

= 480/10

= 48

The mean age is 48

b) Standard deviation

The formula for Standard deviation =

√(x - Mean)²/n

Where n = number of terms

Standard deviation =

√[(42 - 48)² + (54 - 48)² + (50 - 48)² +(54 - 48)² + (50 - 48)² +(42 - 48)² + (46 - 48)² + (46 - 48)² + (48 - 48)² + (48 - 48)² / 10]

= √-6² + 6² + 2² + 6² + 2² + -6² + -2² + -2² + 0² + 0²/10

=√36 + 36 + 4 + 36 + 4 + 36 + 4 + 4 + 0 + 0/ 10

=√160/10

= √16

= 4

The standard deviation of the ages is 4
