Math Problem Statement
make at least 5 items quiz of finding mean,variance and standard deviation
Solution
Here's a 5-item quiz on calculating the mean, variance, and standard deviation of a set of data. After each problem, you can calculate the mean, variance, and standard deviation for practice.
Quiz: Finding Mean, Variance, and Standard Deviation
1.
The following data set represents the scores of 7 students on a math exam:
45, 50, 60, 55, 65, 70, 75
- Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the data.
2.
The number of books read by a group of 5 people in a month is as follows:
3, 7, 9, 12, 5
- Calculate the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the number of books read.
3.
Consider the daily temperatures (in Celsius) for a week:
20, 22, 25, 23, 21, 19, 24
- Compute the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the temperatures.
4.
A company tracks the number of products sold by 6 employees in a week:
14, 20, 19, 22, 18, 24
- Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the number of products sold.
5.
A student tracks the number of hours they study each day for a week:
2, 3, 4, 3, 5, 2, 6
- Calculate the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the hours studied.
Tip:
For variance and standard deviation, remember that:
- Variance measures how spread out the values are around the mean.
- Standard deviation is simply the square root of the variance, giving you a measure of spread in the same units as the data.
