The answer is A, 
. This is because when plugging in -2 for x, the expression will look like this: 
. To make the exponent positive, you have to flip it into a fraction. Then it will be 
. Lastly, you simplify the denominator into 81.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have a vertical directrix, the equation of the parabola is
Where p is the distance from the vertex to the directrix.
or the distance from the vertex to the focus.
Since we have a sideways parabola, let use the point for the directrix is (-6,0). So let find the midpoint of (-6,0) and (6,0). That would be our vertex.
So our vertex is (0,0).
So our equation become
The distance from the focus and directrix is 6.
So p=6.
So p is 6.
Since p is 6,
Given the dataset
We start by computing the average:
We compute the difference bewteen each element and the average:
We square those differences:
And take the average of those squared differences: we sum them
And we divide by the number of elements:
Finally, we take the square root of this quantity and we have the standard deviation:
