A.
1. Given: 7, 9, 12, 15, 5, 4, 11
x̄ = ∑f/n
= 7 + 9 + 12 + 15 + 5 + 4 + 11
= 63/7
x̄ = 9

6 10 60
7 6 42
Total 73 299
x̄ = ∑fiXi / n

= 299 / 73

x̄ = 4.0958 or 4.096
 3. Given: 66.7, 73, 75.5, 75.5, 85.6, 92, 93.3, 95.5, 97, 100

Mdn = ((n/2)th term + ((n/2) + 1)th term/ 2

= 85.6 + 92 /2
Mdn = 88.8

4. Given: 3, 3, 6, 15, 15, 15, 27, 27, 37, 48

Mod= 15

5. Given: 18, 22, 19, 25, 12

Step 1.
x̄ = ∑f/n
= 18 + 22 + 19 + 25 + 12 / 5
= 96/5
= 19.2
Step 2.
X X - x̄ (X - x̄)2

22 2.8 7.84
19 -0.2 0.04
25 5.8 33.64
12 -7.2 51.84
∑ (X - x̄) = 94.8

Sample Variance
S = √94.8/ (n-1)
S = √94.8/ (5-1)
= √94.8/4
S = 23.7
Standard Deviation
SD = √variance
SD = √23.7
SD= 4. 868 or 4.87

6.
Step 1.
x̄ = ∑f/n
= 600 + 470 + 170 + 430 + 300 / 5
= 1970 / 5
= 394
Step 2.

470 76 5776
170 -224 50176
430 36 1296
300 -94 8836
∑ (X- x̄)2 = 108520
Sample Variance

S = √ 108520 / (n-1)

S = √ 108520 / (5-1)

S = √ 108520 / 4

S= 27130
Standard Deviation
SD = √variance
SD = √27130
SD= 164.711
