Sagot :
The standard deviation exists as the positive square root of the variance.
So, the standard deviation = 6.819.
How to estimate the standard deviation?
Given data set: 15, 17, 23, 5, 21, 19, 26, 4, 14
To calculate the mean of the data.
We know that mean exists as the average of the data values and exists estimated as:
Mean [tex]$=\frac{15+17+23+5+21+19+26+4+14}{9}[/tex]
Mean [tex]$=\frac{144}{9}[/tex]
Mean = 16
To estimate the difference of each data point from the mean as:
Deviation:
15 - 16 = -1
17 - 16 = 1
23 - 16 = 7
5 - 16 = -11
21 - 16 = 5
19 - 16 = 3
26 - 16 = 10
4 - 16 = -12
14 - 16 = -2
Now we have to square the above deviations we obtain:
1 , 1, 14, 121, 25, 9, 100, 144, 4
To estimate the variance of the above sets:
variance [tex]$=\frac{1+ 1+14+ 121+25+ 9+ 100+ 144+ 4}{9}[/tex]
Variance [tex]$=\frac{419}{9}[/tex]
Variance = 46.5
The standard deviation exists as the positive square root of the variance.
so, the standard deviation [tex]$\sqrt{46.5} =6.819[/tex] .
