Question 4 answers

a.1.2
b.0.1
c.0.2
d.0.5

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

mean=(5.9+5.7+5.5+5.4+5.7+5.5+5.6+6.2+6.1+5.5)/10=57.1/10=5.71

we assume mean=5.7

x    mean  |x-mean| (x-mean)^2

5.9   5.7      0.2         0.04

5.7   5.7         0            0

5.5   5.7      0.2         0.04

5.4   5.7      0.3         0.09

5.7   5.7         0             0

5.5   5.7      0.2         0.04

5.6   5.7      0.1          0.01

6.2   5.7      0.5         0.25

6.1    5.7      0.4         0.16

5.5   5.7      0.2         0.04

                                --------

                                0.63

standard deviation=√((0.63)/10)=√(0.063)≈0.251

so c
