Which data set has the largest standard deviation

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

<em>The data set marked as B has the largest standard deviation</em>

Explanation:

<u>Standard Deviation</u>

It's a number used to show how a set of measurements is spread out from the average value. A low standard deviation means that most of the values are close to the average. A high standard deviation means that the numbers are more spread out.

The formula for the standard deviation is

$\displaystyle \sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i-\mu)^2}{n}}$

Where $x_i$ is the value of each measurement, n is the number of elements in the set, and $\mu$ is the average or media of the values, defined as

$\displaystyle \mu=\frac{\sum x_i}{n}$

Let's analyze each set of data:

A.3,4,3,4,3,4,3

The average is

$\displaystyle \mu=\frac{3+4+3+4+3+4+3}{7}=3.43$

Computing the stardard deviation:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{(3-3.43)^2+(4-3.43)^2+(3-3.43)^2+(4-3.43)^2+(3-3.43)^2+(4-3.43)^2+(3-3.43)^2}{7}}$

$\sigma=0.5$

B.1,6,3,15,4,12,8

The average is

$\displaystyle \mu=\frac{1+6+3+15+4+12+8}{7}=7$

Computing the stardard deviation:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{(1-7)^2+(6-7)^2+(3-7)^2+(15-7)^2+(4-7)^2+(12-7)^2+(8-7)^2}{7}}$

$\sigma=4.7$

C. 20, 21,23,19,19,20,20

The average is

$\displaystyle \mu=\frac{20+21+23+19+19+20+20}{7}=20.29$

Computing the stardard deviation:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{(20-20.29)^2+(21-20.29)^2+(23-20.29)^2+(19-20.29)^2+(19-20.29)^2+(20-20.29)^2+(20-20.29)^2}{7}}$

$\sigma=1.3$

D.12,14,13,14,12,13,12

The average is

$\displaystyle \mu=\frac{12+14+13+14+12+13+12}{7}=12.86$

Computing the stardard deviation:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{(12-12.86)^2+(14-12.86)^2+(13-12.86)^2+(14-12.86)^2+(12-12.86)^2+(13-12.86)^2+(12-12.86)^2}{7}}$

$\sigma=0.8$

We can see the data set marked as B has the largest standard deviation

Why the blood pressure in human body is greater at the feet than at the brain. please help!!!!

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The pressure of liquid column is given by p=hpg, where h is depth, p is density and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Therefore, pressure of the liquid column increases with depth. The height of the blood column in a human body is more at feet than at the brain. Therefore, the blood pressure in humans is greater at the feet than the brain.
