Complete question :
Find the standard deviation of the following data. Round your answer to one decimal place.
X: 0 1 2 3 4 5
P(X) : 0.2, 0.3, 0.1, 0.1, 0.1, 0.2
Answer:
1.833
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data :
X: 0 1 2 3 4 5
P(X) : 0.2, 0.3, 0.1, 0.1, 0.1, 0.2
Standard deviation (s) = Sqrt[Σx²*f(x) - E(x)²]
E(x) = (0*0.2) + (1*0.3)+(2*0.1)+(3*0.1) + (4*0.1) + (5 * 0.2) = 2.2
Sqrt[Σx²*f(x) - E(x)²]: [(0^2 * 0.2)+(1^2 * 0.3)+(2^2 * 0.1)+(3^2 * 0.1) + (4^2 * 0.1) + (5^2 * 0.2)] - 2.2²
Sqrt(8.2 - 4.84) = 1.833
