Answer:
C) 2
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1: Find mean of data set
2+4+4+5+7+8 = 30
30/6 = 5
Mean = 5
step 2: subtract each data value from the mean and square it
5-2 = 3; 3² = 9
5-4 = 1; 1² = 1
5-4 = 1; 1² = 1
5-5 = 0; 0² = 0
5-7 = -2; (-2²) = 4
5-8 = -3; (-3²) = 9
Add the squared results:
9+1+1+0+4+9 = 24
Divide 24 by 6 to get the Variance of 4
Take the square root of the Variance to get the Standard Deviation
= 2
