Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, and the variance is found by using the mean. So we will do that first. I will use the population variance as opposed to the sample variance since our set of numbers is small.
The mean: 8 + 12 + 15 + 17 + 18 = 70 and divide that by 5 to get
and use this to find the variance in the formula:
it is a bit difficult to enter that formula in correctly, but here's how it works mathematically:

Squaring this ensures us that we don't end up with zero, which would be useless.
so
which means that the standard deviation is
s = 3.633
(If you do it with n-1 = 4 in the denominator of the variance, you get a standard deviation of 4.062)
Answer:
2.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug "7/3" in your calculator and round to the nearest hundredth (by finding the hundredth's place, looking at the digit before it, and moving the hundredth's place up one value if you deciphering that the digit before is greater/equal to 5). If you need a terminating decimal, you need to round. If you don't need it as a terminating decimal, add a ling over the last digit where the decimal begins to repeat.
