Solution

The question is asking to calculate the standard deviation ss from a frequency distribution table with different interval classes. Here is the breakdown of the table provided:

No urutKelas intervalFrekuensi (Frequency)
110 – 192
220 – 293
330 – 395
440 – 498
550 – 5910
660 – 699
770 – 797
880 – 894
990 – 992

Steps to calculate standard deviation (using frequency distribution):

  1. Find the midpoint ( xix_i ) for each class:
    Midpoint xix_i of a class interval can be found by taking the average of the lower and upper bounds of the class. xi=Lower Bound+Upper Bound2x_i = \frac{\text{Lower Bound} + \text{Upper Bound}}{2}

  2. Multiply each midpoint xix_i by the frequency fif_i to calculate fixif_i x_i.

  3. Calculate the mean xˉ\bar{x}: xˉ=(fixi)fi\bar{x} = \frac{\sum (f_i x_i)}{\sum f_i}

  4. Find the squared deviations (xixˉ)2(x_i - \bar{x})^2, and multiply them by the frequencies fif_i to get fi(xixˉ)2f_i (x_i - \bar{x})^2.

  5. Sum up all fi(xixˉ)2f_i (x_i - \bar{x})^2, and divide by fi1\sum f_i - 1 to find the variance.

  6. Standard deviation ss: s=fi(xixˉ)2fi1s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum f_i (x_i - \bar{x})^2}{\sum f_i - 1}}

Let me calculate this step by step for you.The calculated mean xˉ\bar{x} is 56.1, and the standard deviation ss is approximately 19.73.

Would you like more details on the calculations or any specific step?

Here are 5 related questions to explore further:

  1. How would the standard deviation change if the frequencies were doubled?
  2. What is the significance of the standard deviation in this context?
  3. How would the calculation differ for a population standard deviation versus a sample standard deviation?
  4. How can you calculate the variance from the standard deviation?
  5. What other measures of spread (besides standard deviation) are commonly used in statistics?

Tip: In frequency distribution tables, the midpoint is crucial for representing the entire class interval with a single value.
