Suppose you gather some data and calculate that ∑ (x – x)2 = 81. Further, you know that n = 9. What is the standard deviation of those data? [please note, you are asked for the standard deviation]

Respuesta :

The standard deviation of those data will be 9. Then the correct option is D.

What is a standard deviation?

It is the measure of the dispersion of statistical data. Dispersion is the extent to which the value is in a variation.

The standard deviation is given as

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{N} \Sigma (x_1 - \bar{x})^2}[/tex]

Suppose you gather some data and calculate that ∑ (Xi – X)² = 81. Further, you know that N = 9.

Then we have

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{9} \times 81}[/tex]

On simplifying, we have

σ = √9

σ = 3

Thus, the correct option is D.
