The estimate for the mean is of: $227.15.

The estimate for the standard deviation is of: $219.4.

-------------------------------

  • First, we estimate the mean, which is the <u>sums of the multiplications of the relative frequencies and the halfway point of each interval.</u>
  • The size of the sample was of 339 + 93 + 53 + 17 + 9 + 8 + 1 = 520

The halfway points and relative frequencies are given as follows, and will be used to calculate both the mean and the standard deviation:

  • (0 + 199)/2 = 99.5, with a relative frequency of 339/520 = 0.6519.
  • (200 + 399)/2 = 299.5, with a relative frequency of 93/520 = 0.1788.
  • (400 + 599)/2 = 499.5, with a relative frequency of 53/520 = 0.1019.
  • (600 + 799)/2 = 699.5, with a relative frequency of 17/520 = 0.0327.
  • (800 + 999)/2 = 899.5, with a relative frequency of 9/520 = 0.0173.
  • (1000 + 1199)/2 = 1099.5, with a relative frequency of 8/520 = 0.0154.
  • (1200 + 1399)/2 = 1299.5, with a relative frequency of 1/520 = 0.0019.  

-------------------------------

Thus, the mean is of:

M = 0.6519(99.5) + 0.1788(299.5) + 0.1019(499.5) + 0.0327(699.5) + 0.0173(899.5) + 0.0154(1099.5) + 0.0019(1299.5) = 227.15

The mean of the amount of savings is of $227.15.

-------------------------------

The standard deviation is the <u>square root of the sum of the difference squared between each observation and the mean</u>, thus:

S = \sqrt{0.6519(99.5 - 227.15)^2 + 0.1788(299.5 - 227.15)^2 + 0.1019(499.5 - 227.15)^2 + ...} = 219.4

The standard deviation is of $219.4.

One could be |x|<-2
This could be one since no matter what you put in for x, it will always be positive.
