Standard deviation is a measurement of a collection of values' variance or dispersion. The standard deviation of the data set is 2.474.

<h3>How to calculate the standard deviation of a data set?</h3>

Step 1: Find the mean

Step 2: Find each score’s deviation from the mean

Step 3: Square each deviation from the mean

Step 4: Find the sum of squares

Step 5: Apply the formula

SD = \sqrt{\dfrac{\sum(x_i-\bar{x})^2}{n}}

The data set that is given to us is {1, 4, 2, 2, 8, 7, 3}, now use the steps to calculate the standard deviation.

Step 1: Find the mean

The mean of the given data set can be written as,

Mean, \mu=\dfrac{1+4+2+2+8+7+3}{7} = 3.857

Step 2: Find each score’s deviation from the mean

1 - 3.857 = -2.857

4 - 3.857 = 0.143

2 - 3.857= -1.857

2 - 3.857= -1.857

8 - 3.857 = 4.143

7 - 3.857 = 3.143

3 - 3.857 = -0.857

Step 3: Square each deviation from the mean

-2.857² = 8.162

0.143² = 0.02

-1.857² = 3.447

-1.857² = 3.447

4.143² = 17.165

3.143² = 9.877

-0.857²= 0.735

Step 4: Find the sum of squares

8.162+0.20+3.447+3.447+17.165+9.877+0.735 = 42.857

Step 5: Apply the formula

SD = \sqrt{\dfrac{\sum(x_i-\bar{x})^2}{n}}\\\\SD = \sqrt{\dfrac{42.857}{7}} \\\\SD= 2.474

Hence, the standard deviation of the data set is 2.474.

John Tucker is interested in purchasing stock. He wants to determine the costs.
Delvig [45]

Answer: a0 =$97.5  ; a1 =$87.96 ; a2=$282.48; a3=$1,722.5 ; a4=$1,553.96 ; a5=$4,990.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to multiply each total by the commission in decimal form (6 / 100= 0.06).

So:

$1625 x 0.06 = $97.5

$1,466 x 0.06 =$87.96

$4,708 x 0.06 =$282.48

And finally, to obtain the total costs we have to add to each total the commission of the total.

$1625 + $97.5 = $1,722.5

$1,466 +$87.96 = $1,553.96

$4,708 +$282.48 = $4,990.48

Feel free to ask for more if it´s necessary or if you did not understand something.

Solve in one variable<br> 2/3x + 5 = 3/2x
Montano1993 [528]
First, we group together the terms with variables in one side by subtracting 3/2 x and 5 from both sides of the equation.
                   (2/3)x - (3/2)x + 5 - 5 = (3/2)x - (3/2)x - 5
                         (-5/6)x = -5
The value of x from the equation is 6.

1) 2x + 3y = 12 -> 3y = -2x +12 -> y = -2/3x + 4
2) 4y - 7x = 16 -> 4y = 7x + 16 -> y = 7/4x + 4
