12.6 repeating is the equivalent of 12.666666666666 and so on but if you rounded, it would be 12.67. So, compare 12.67 and 12.63. 12.67 is larger.

She is wrong because 12.66 is greater than 12.63. The last digit of 12.66 (6) is larger than the last digit of 12.63 (3) Even if 12.6 keeps on going (12.66666.....) 6 will always be bigger than 3.
Hope that helped :)

Please help me compute standard deviation! Here is the problem, as written.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The standard deviation for the income of super shoppers is 76.12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to compute the standard deviation for the grouped data probability distribution is:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\sum [(x-\mu)^{2}\cdot P(x)]}$

Here,

<em>x</em> = midpoints

$\mu=\sum x\cdot P(x)$

Consider the Excel table attached below.

The mean is:

$\mu=\sum x\cdot P(x)=32.3$

Compute the standard deviation as follows:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\sum [(x-\mu)^{2}\cdot P(x)]}$

$=\sqrt{259.71}\\\\=76.1155204\\\\\approx 76.12$

Thus, the standard deviation for the income of super shoppers is 76.12.
