Calculate for the mean/ average of the given numbers:

μ = (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5) / 5 = 3

Then, we calculate for the summation of the squares of differences of these numbers from the mean, S

S = (1 - 3)² + (2 - 3)² + (3 - 3)² + (4 - 3)² + (5 - 3)²
S = 10

Divide this summation by the number of items and take the square root of the result to get the standard deviation.

SD = sqrt (10 / 5) = sqrt 2
SD = 1.41

Thus, the standard deviation of the given is equal to 1.41.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relationship is represented by linear function with its linear parameter "b" equal to zero. Since b is equal to zero, the line passes through the origin and the function/relation is proportional.

To verify that we divide the y coordinate over the x coordinate we obtain a constant called k, which is the slope.

For instance:

$y=2x$
