Math Problem Statement
Solution
The content of this uploaded file seems to be the same as the earlier one, asking to find the mean, median, mode, and population standard deviation for the provided dataset.
Let me recap the calculations with clear steps once again.
Dataset:
1. Mean:
2. Median:
The median is the middle value(s) when the dataset is ordered. Since (even), the median is the average of the 4th and 5th values:
3. Mode:
The mode is the value(s) that occurs most frequently:
- appears twice, while all other values appear once.
4. Population Standard Deviation:
The formula for population standard deviation is: Where:
- = each data value,
- = mean,
- .
Step 1: Deviations from the mean ():
&19 - 30.4 = -11.4,\; 23 - 30.4 = -7.4,\; 25 - 30.4 = -5.4,\; 28 - 30.4 = -2.4, \\ &30 - 30.4 = -0.4,\; 32 - 30.4 = 1.6,\; 33 - 30.4 = 2.6,\; 33 - 30.4 = 2.6 \end{aligned}$$ **Step 2**: Square these deviations: $$(-11.4)^2 = 129.96,\; (-7.4)^2 = 54.76,\; (-5.4)^2 = 29.16,\; (-2.4)^2 = 5.76$$ $$(-0.4)^2 = 0.16,\; (1.6)^2 = 2.56,\; (2.6)^2 = 6.76,\; (2.6)^2 = 6.76$$ **Step 3**: Sum of squared deviations: $$129.96 + 54.76 + 29.16 + 5.76 + 0.16 + 2.56 + 6.76 + 6.76 = 235.88$$ **Step 4**: Divide by $$N = 8$$: $$\frac{235.88}{8} = 29.485$$ **Step 5**: Square root: $$\sigma = \sqrt{29.485} \approx 5.4$$ --- ### Final Answers: - **Mean**: $$30.4$$ - **Median**: $$29.0$$ - **Mode**: $$33$$ - **Population Standard Deviation**: $$5.4$$ Let me know if you needAsk a new question for Free
