Solution

Determine the standard deviation.

Given data:

10,28,13,18,29,30,22,23,25,and32

Here is the total number of observationsn are10.

Hence,i=110xi=10+28+13+18+29+30+22+23+25+32=230.

Hence, The Mean:

μ=i=110xin=23010=23.

Use the formula to calculate the standard deviation.

[(1n)Σ(xiμ)2]=110×490=49=7

Hence, the standard deviation of the given data is 7.
