Option c is the correct answer which represents the numerator in the calculation of variance and standard deviation.
<h3>What are the variance and standard deviation? </h3>
In statistics, variance is a measure of the variation of data from the mean, whereas standard deviation is the measure of the normal distribution of statistical data.
A contractor records the areas, in square feet, of a small sample of houses in a neighborhood to determine data about the neighborhood.
2,400; 1,750; 1,900; 2,500; 2,250; 2,100
we need to find which of the following represents the numerator in the calculation of variance and standard deviation.
(225
+ (–425+ (–275 + (325 + (75+ (–75 = 423,750
(650 + (–150 + (–600 + (250 + (150 + (–300 = 980,000
(250 + (–400 + (–250 + (350 + (100 + (–50 = 420,000
92416.60
The variance is 84000
The standard deviation is 290
mean = (2400+1750+1900+2500+2250+2100)/6
mean = 2150
Subtract the data values from the mean to get
2400-2150 = 250
1750-2150 = -400
1900-2150 = -250
2500-2150 = 350
2250-2150 = 100
2100-2150 = -50
The differences are 250, -400, -250, 350, 100, -50
Then you square those values and add up the squares
(250)^2 + (-400)^2 + (-250)^2 + (350)^2 + (100)^2 + (-50)^2 = 420,000
Hence, option c is the correct answer which represents the numerator in the calculation of variance and standard deviation.
